About this game

Worker placement in a dystopian city where keeping your workers ignorant is key to maintaining control. Workers are dice; higher-value dice are smarter but more likely to escape your control if their combined intelligence gets too high. Build markets that punish players who did not help construct them, dig tunnels between factions, and recruit powerful secret allies. Four factions offer different strategic paths through the dystopia. The keep-them-dumb mechanic adds a unique tension to every dice roll and worker placement decision.
