Tri*T*Area

Hey board game enthusiasts! Ready to roll up your sleeves and give that brand-new city a major upgrade? In Tri*T*Area, you step into the shoes of a visionary developer, competing to leave your mark on urban development. The goal is straightforward, but the competition is fierce: have the most pieces on the buildings across the four city areas or secure the piece atop the tallest skyscraper. How does it work? Through trick-taking mechanics that echo the classics but with a modern twist. Whoever plays the highest and lowest cards in the suit that dominates the trick earns the right to place their pieces on the board. The game unfolds over three rounds, each with its own challenges and scoring opportunities. In the second round, one card is left out of hand, and whoever has the majority of pieces on the area's buildings scores points. The third round ups the ante: a card must be revealed before play, and scoring follows a similar pattern. In the end, the player with the most points wins the title of best developer in the new metropolis! It's a game that blends area control strategy with luck and reading your opponents' trick plays. Perfect for those who enjoy an intelligent challenge and aren't afraid to compete for every inch of the board.
