Kilt Castle adds a simple and highly interactive card mechanism to the classic Euro game genre of outbuilding one's opponents in an attempt to control the largest territory. The game board shows a grid of 5x5 squares. Ten cards are placed beside the first four rows in stacks of 4, 3, 2 and 1 card. On their turn, the player picks up an open card from one of the stacks next to the game board and places it in another row always in a clockwise direction

- All players whose colors are on that card (one or two) are then allowed to build a new tower or build on top of an existing tower in this particular row.
- Building on an open space is free, while building on top of somebody else's tower costs as many ducats as the number of "floors" already built. A player can decide to trigger a general round of scoring simply by moving the last card of any stack.
- High towers are a good way to claim a large, connected territory and collect a lot of ducats.
