About this game

Design the Eixample, Barcelona's famous grid expansion, as a 19th-century urban planner. Place workers to construct buildings along the iconic chamfered-corner blocks, lay tramlines, build public services, and attract citizens to your neighborhoods. Each intersection you develop creates scoring opportunities based on what surrounds it. The modular city grows organically as players compete for the most prestigious districts. A mid-weight euro that captures the romance of urban planning in one of the world's most beautiful cities.
