Build the most beautiful Amsterdam canal houses, full of shops, cats, seagulls and tulips in this fun card game!

Canal House is a light hand drafting game for 2-4 players where you build an idyllic set of canal houses. You build the houses using ‘bases’, ‘floors’ and ‘roofs’.

Each turn, each player simultaneously chooses one card from their hand and builds it, using the rules detailed below.
After building their cards, each player passes the remaining three cards to the player on their left. After receiving a new hand of three cards from the player to their right, each player chooses a type of card (base, front, or roof) and draws one card of that type from the corresponding deck into their hand to refresh it to four cards.

A completed house consists of a base at the bottom, any number of front cards, and one roof at the top. When building a house, you must build from the bottom-up (starting with a base and ending with a roof).
