About the game
What you do in a play session
Infinite City is that game that mixes strategy with a bit of controlled chaos. You're the CEO of a corporation trying to dominate a city that never stops growing. Each turn, you place tiles representing buildings — like ports, embassies, or transit stations — and use colored pegs to mark your territory. The cool part is that each building has a unique effect: some let you steal tiles from others, others change the board layout, and there are even those that turn the game upside down! The strategy lies in deciding when to expand your territory and when to focus on high-scoring buildings. Don't be fooled by the simple looks: tile interactions create hilarious and unpredictable situations. The game ends when someone places their last peg or when the fifth Power Station appears. Then it's scoring time: contiguous areas under your control score points, some buildings have specific values, and whoever controls the most silver-ringed buildings gets a bonus. Get ready for temporary alliances, strategic betrayals, and lots of fun around the table!

Frequently Asked Questions
Quick answers before you buy
What's the best player count?
3 to 5 players is ideal. With 2 it's very tactical, with 6 it can get chaotic.
Is it hard to learn?
Not at all! Rules are simple, but tile combinations create depth. Everyone gets it in about 15 minutes.
Is language dependent?
Yes, tiles have text so a reference sheet in your language helps (available in the community).
How long does it take?
30-45 minutes on average. Games with new players might take up to 1 hour.
Is it luck-based?
There's some luck in tile draws, but strategy is how you use what you get. Planners usually do better.
