About the game

What you do in a play session

Little Town: Goodie Buildings is the expansion that adds a flavorful boost to the already beloved city‑building game. It introduces four new buildings – Sushi bar, Temple, Cornucopia, and Construction Site – giving players more action options and ways to rack up points. The Sushi bar acts as a trading hub, letting players swap resources for victory points; the Temple offers faith bonuses that can be leveraged in future events; the Cornucopia opens a resource flow that boosts overall production; and the Construction Site turns empty lots into useful structures, keeping the city’s growth steady. The expansion retains the core worker‑placement and tile‑placement mechanics of the base game but adds new building cards, terrain tiles, and resource tokens. The board stays the same, so there’s no need for a new map. In terms of playtime, a game with the expansion typically takes between 35 and 55 minutes, depending on player experience. The game’s weight remains light at 2/5 on the BGG scale, making it accessible for those already familiar with the base. If you enjoy medieval city building and want fresh tactical choices without steepening the learning curve, this expansion delivers extra fun and new decision points for 2 to 4 players.
