About the game
What you do in a play session
Hey folks! Ready for another Sprawlopolis challenge? This time, the city has been split in two by a massive interstate highway, and the rules are clear: no crossing! This expansion introduces 4 cards that form this barrier, dividing your board into two halves. Now, city building becomes tighter and more strategic, forcing you to think about every corner without being able to cross from one side to the other. It's the Sprawlopolis you already know, but with an extra touch of challenge and planning.
The gameplay options remain cool: you can play cooperatively with a friend, in a fierce two-player competition, or even take on the solo challenge. In solo mode, things get interesting because you'll alternate sides of the highway each turn, trying to optimize scoring on both halves. This expansion adds an extra layer of complexity without making the game too heavy, maintaining the quick and clever feel of the base game. If you enjoy Sprawlopolis and want a new way to play, this expansion is for you!

How many cards does this expansion add?
The expansion brings 4 cards that form the interstate highway, and one of them is added as a scoring card, along with two from the base game.
How does the highway affect the game?
