About this expansion

Alhambra: The Falconers is a 2013 expansion for 2–6 players, with a play time of about 60 minutes. It is the sixth expansion for Alhambra and includes four separate modules that can be used individually or combined with one another.

Each module adds a distinct way to develop your Alhambra. You can mix these rules with any combination of modules from this expansion or from other Alhambra expansions, creating a flexible addition to the game.

  • The Falconers: Land falcon tiles on the intersection of four building tiles, provided that the colors match.
  • The Building Sites: Pay half the cost of a building tile to reserve it for later, while ensuring that the required payment is made.
  • The Exchange Certificates: Store change when you pay too much, then use it for a later purchase.
  • The Portals: Buy a portal together with a building tile to extend your wall to new lengths.

The four modules address different parts of the Alhambra experience. Falconers focus on matching colors and tile intersections, while Building Sites let you reserve something you need. Exchange Certificates give overpayment a future use, and Portals offer another way to extend your wall.

With its modular format, Alhambra: The Falconers can be tailored to the combination of rules you want to use. Add one new element or introduce all four, alongside modules from other expansions, for a broader Alhambra experience.
