## Description
Naturopolis: Points of Interest arrives as a one‑card expansion that adds a splash of magic to the beloved base game. The card acts as a visitor to your city and, when surrounded by blocks of the same type, grants a scoring bonus. There’s a quirky twist: the rainbow depicted on the card also counts as a road, but it doesn’t trigger the dreaded road tax, potentially saving you up to two points. This “point of interest” mechanic introduces new rules and opens up cooperative strategies, as players can help each other place the right blocks around the card. The design keeps Naturopolis’s hallmark simplicity – quick 15‑20 minute games, light rules (weight 2/5) – while reinforcing territory and city‑building aspects through familiar tile‑placement and layering. Though it’s just a single card, it adds depth by providing a small “buff” that can turn the tide at critical moments. Perfect for fans of Naturopolis or anyone looking for an easy‑to‑learn micro‑game that fits in a pocket. The expansion also echoes the spirit of the Sprawlopolis series, playfully noting that the rainbow looks like a curved road without confusing players about tax calculations. In short, Points of Interest is a compact, fun, and strategic upgrade that enriches the experience without complicating gameplay.
