At the dawn of the French Revolution, you are the leader of a group of revolutionaries and you try to position your men in the best possible way, so that you are ready when the Revolution starts. You will need money, influence, good leaders, weapons, and many other things to survive during this difficult period. Bastille is a bidding game in which each player has three influence tiles to place, one at a time, in one of the seven buildings surrounding Paris. Once all the tiles have been placed, the players evaluate each building, starting with the player who placed the strongest influence tile and who, as a result, will get a bonus. But be careful, there are only three spaces in each building, so you'll have to think carefully about what you want to do.
Each round, a random mission tile is revealed that indicates which of the various symbols or items collected by the players will earn bonus victory points at the end of the round. At the end of rounds 4 and 8 (the end of the game), players earn points for the leaders they have recruited, for their advancement on the Bastille Trail, and for the secret missions they have collected throughout the game. The player with the most victory points at the end of the 8 rounds is declared the winner and becomes the new leader of the Revolution!
