Building is a test card card type that debuted in Mystery Booster 2. Buildings are permanents that represent structures that have a roof and walls.

Description

You spend resources (eg. Sheep) when constructing a building. When a building is created or expanded it gains prestige (on a scale of 1 to at least 5)

Each building has at least two production abilities that can be activated to create additional resources. This can only be done during a production phase. There are multiple production phases per turn. The odd-numbered production phases of the turn are referred to as beige.

Trivia

  • This card type and the construct keyword imitate Eurogames with Area Control. This involves controlling a game element or board space through allocation of resources. Examples of these games are Catan (Wainwright is a building in the Age of Darkness expansion of Catan) and Carcasson.
