In the Indian province of Rajastan and the great cities of Delhi and Agra, an incomparable landscape of art and culture reveals itself. This region is world famous for it's many splendid palaces, temples, fortifications and tombs.

Today, in medieval India, the Maharaja has called upon his loyal Indian princes, and they are eager to obey his call! They have been sought out to build magnificent houses and palaces in his honor!

Maharaja is a cleverly designed boardgame for two to five players. During the game, the players use different experts and escort the Maharaja from city to city on his voyage through India. They vie with one another to become the grand builders of magnificent monuments left in the Maharaja's wake.
