About the game
Hey board game enthusiasts! Ready to get your hands dirty and build the city of your dreams (or your business empire!)? In Constructopia, you become a heavyweight real estate investor, competing to assemble the most valuable portfolio. It's eight rounds of pure strategy, where every dice roll is a decision that counts. You'll roll six dice and pick three to determine your actions: the color indicates whether you get personnel or construction materials, and the number of pips? That's cash in your pocket to spend on your projects! Will you focus on hiring more staff, securing those scarce materials, or saving up cash for a big investment later? The choice is yours!

With the resources you gather, you'll be able to acquire and construct buildings across three sectors: Residential, Public, and Commercial. Each construction not only earns points but also opens doors to new opportunities in subsequent rounds. And at the start of the game, each player drafts a secret shareholder objective that encourages specialization. Want to earn bonus points? Try to be the best in a specific area: using the most of a certain material, employing the most personnel, or constructing the most buildings of a particular category. Constructopia blends dice rolling, resource planning, and tactical decision-making, allowing you to balance short-term gains with long-term strategy, all while keeping an eye on what other players are up to. At the end of the eight rounds, the player with the highest score wins the title of construction magnate! A game that promises to be an addictive mix of luck and strategy for those who enjoy building and planning.
