Saint Petersburg (Sankt Petersburg in the original German version[1]) is a card-driven designer board game, with the design of the game credited to Michael Tummelhofer, a pseudonym for Michael Bruinsma, Jay Tummelson and Bernd Brunnhofer. Most of the design work was done by Brunnhofer.[2] The game was published in 2004 by Hans im Glück and Rio Grande Games, and won the Deutscher Spiele Preis and International Gamers Award for that year. The expansion, called The Banquet, consists of 12 new cards (3 normal and 9 special) as well as rules to use them.
