Who it's for

Anyone after a 45-minute card-driven city builder that works just as well solo or head to head.

Not for you if…

You prefer sprawling civilisation epics – this one stays small and abstract on purpose.

Vibe's take

Tight and quick – one action per turn keeps it lean, and the entire puzzle is timing the move from gate to district.
