ARTICLE 2: Copied from Castles of Burgundy article

The Castles of Burgundy is a board game for two to four players, set in Medieval Burgundy. It was designed by Stefan Feld and illustrated by Julien Delval and Harald Lieske, and was published in 2011 by Ravensburger/alea. It is considered a classic of the eurogame genre, using dice rolling and dice placement, a modular setup, and set collection as its mechanics. The dice and the ability to change them give players a wide range of options.

In 2016, Ravensburger released Castles of Burgundy: The Card Game. Ravensburger also released a "roll-and-write" version, The Castles of Burgundy: The Dice Game, in 2017. In 2019, DIGIDICED developed versions for Steam, Android, and iOS. In 2013, the French gaming website, BoiteAjeux, released a browser adaptation of the game.
