About the game

What you do in a play session

The City is a fast-paced, strategic card game where you build a city full of synergies. Each card is a building that can be constructed (using other cards as currency) or saved to generate income. Gameplay is dynamic: everyone selects actions simultaneously, revealing them later to see who advances fastest. Schools boost Universities, malls supercharge your economy, and symbols like cars or fountains unlock extra bonuses. First to 50 victory points wins, but watch out — a strong start can decide the game! Ideal for players who enjoy quick decisions and smart combos.
