About Citadels Duel, from BoardGameGeek:

Welcome to Citadels Duel, a tense head-to-head contest of cunning and ambition. Two rival city planners compete to shape the future of the Citadel, striving to design the district plan that generates the greatest wealth and earns lasting renown. Construct powerful buildings across diverse districts-from bustling Commercial hubs to formidable Military strongholds-while enlisting influential figures such as the cunning Queen, the deadly Assassin, and the ruthless Warlord to your aid. Every ally you recruit is an advantage your opponent may also claim, so anticipate their moves and act decisively. When the final building rises, the planner with the most gold claims victory. -description from the publisher
