Round Structure

1. Upkeep

- Place a coin (from the bank) on each room left in the market from the previous round.

- Refill empty spaces in the market by drawing cards from the room deck and taking a room from the indicated pile.

- Pass the Master Builder marker.

2. The new Master Builder rearranges the rooms in the market in any way they like.

3. Other players may each buy one room, paying the Master Builder. The room must be placed immediately in a legal position in the player's castle

- A player may buy a stairs or hallway from the supply instead of buying a room. The cost is always 3000 and is still paid to the Master Builder.

- A player may pass to take 5000 from the bank.

4. Finally, the Master Builder may buy a room from whatever is left in the market. The Master Builder pays the bank. They may buy a corridor or pass, as usual.
