About this expansion

Caylus Magna Carta: The Library is a 2007 expansion for 2–4 players of Caylus Magna Carta, with the base game listed at a 45-minute play time.

Originally released through Spielbox 2/2007, this expansion focuses on one clearly defined addition: the library. Its effect is tied directly to the player who builds it, creating a specific benefit that applies throughout the game.

Whoever builds the library may take the first card from their draw pile each round. This happens during phase 1, income, making the library’s ability a recurring part of that phase whenever the expansion is in play.

  • Expansion for Caylus Magna Carta
  • For 2–4 players
  • Released in 2007
  • Library builder may take the first card from their draw pile each round
  • Ability is used during phase 1, income

Caylus Magna Carta: The Library is a compact addition centered on a single building and its associated card-draw rule. Rather than introducing a broad set of new information, it identifies one construction achievement and connects it to a repeated income-phase benefit.

This card is included with the Rio Grande Games edition of the base game. For owners of that edition, the library content is already part of the included game materials; it was also presented as an expansion for the 2007 Ystari Game edition of Caylus Magna Carta.
