What it is

Your Art Gallery adds 10 people for each level, on top of the room your Town Hall makes.

It shows one card for each level, and every card on the wall supports more people by its rarity.

A damaged card supports fewer people, and a Ruined card cannot be hung. Hang puts up your best free copy of a card.

A gallery shows one copy of any card. A second copy reads Already hung, and another city's gallery can still show it.

A card on the wall cannot be in a deck, and a card in a deck cannot be hung. Take it down when you want to fight with it.

Give the wall a theme and the cards that match it support more people. See exhibition themes.

It is also where you train Warders, who keep other players from scouting you.

What each card is worth

  • Standard: 2 people
  • Rare: 5 people
  • Epic: 12 people
  • Legendary: 25 people
  • Unique: 60 people

A card no curator has rated counts as a Standard. A damaged card counts at the same share as its stats: three quarters at Fine, half at Worn and a quarter at Fragile, rounded up. It keeps the grade it was hung at, and must be taken down before it can be repaired.

What you can do with it today

Build one on any empty plot, then open it. The wall shows a frame for each level: press the Hang button under a card you own to put it up, and Take down to get it back. Your city starts supporting the extra people straight away, and the population climbs towards it.

Training Warders

Once you have researched Gallery Watch, train one Warder per Gallery level here. Each Warder makes other players' Appraisers likelier to fail in this city and likelier to be caught. Appraisers your Warders catch are listed on this page.

What it costs

Art Gallery costs 150 wood and takes 5 minutes to build.

You need a Curator's Office at level 1.

Every level after that costs about 35% more and takes about 40% longer than the one before, and stone is part of the price from level 5.
