Description

We Built This City is a fight between builders to develop the most valuable properties possible. Place your factories in their backyards and hope they don't build a trash dump in the middle of your developments. Remember to connect your buildings to city hall or all of your plans will go to waste!

Players place cards, developing the city block by block. Players will develop houses, offices, and factories but the neighborhood they are building in determines how valuable these are. The player with the most valuable properties, and thus the most points, at the end of the game is the winner.

Own It Played It Fun Priced Well High Replay Value Nice Artwork

Excellent Game. There was a bit of a learning curve on the first game: we had to just walk through it with the rules, but after the second game we hit our stride. I've played the 2 and 3 player games...
