About

Inspired by local elections in Turkey and empty promises, this game casts you as an Urban Planner. Your goal is to impress the current Mayor and score the most points with your blueprint. The blueprint should include plans to build schools with bike roads, animal hospitals, fund funding allocations, provide free Wi-Fi, and assign Civil Servants to hospitals and schools. Every building needs civilians; unemployed civilians (those not assigned to a building) will cost you points. Even if you can't construct a building on your turn, you must build a road or pavement, following the curve dictated by the dice. The ultimate aim is to position yourself as the next Mayor. The game unfolds over several rounds, with the following phases in each round: 1- Throw dice. 2- The first player claims a Promise Card (optional). 3- Players claim regions based on the dice roll and draw symbols. 4- End of the round. You score points by drawing icons in the colored regions. The game ends when there are no free spots left on any player's sheet. The player with the highest score wins! —description from the designer
