From my non-literal translation of the game description in the rules... Das Prestel Architekturspiel displays a panorama of architectural works of art in an exciting and involving game. Two to five players compete to construct 24 of the most important buildings in architectural history. In the game, different building designs are presented to the players. In order to construct these buildings, construction cards must be selected from the five card decks. The speed with which players select their construction cards decides the player order for each round. Points are scored when construction cards are used to construct the buildings on the table. Whoever manages to earn 13 points wins the game.
