📖 About This Game
As a premier city planner, you’ve been called in for one of the most prestigious projects imaginable: the chance to remake Manhattan. Now it's time to share your vision for New York City’s most notable borough. Can you design the ideal layout? Planning makes perfect in Making Manhattan!
In Making Manhattan, players will take turns drafting cards to add to their tableau outlining their plan for Manhattan. Tableaus consist of Downtown, Midtown, and Uptown areas as well as Central Park. Once both players have completed their plan, players will score points based on the position of each drafted card, personal scoring conditions assigned at start, and how well they managed traffic through the borough. The player with the most points at the end of the game becomes New York’s top city planner and wins the game!
