Who it's for

Players who appreciate elegant designs that blend card drafting with spatial puzzles. A hidden gem that rewards repeated plays.

Not for you if…

Skip if you need strong thematic immersion β€” the eco-city theme is abstract. The rules explanation can be awkward despite the elegant gameplay.

About this game

Futuristic city-building game where you expand an eco-city by playing cards to build districts or urbanize existing ones. A clever card-drafting mechanism intertwines with tile-laying as you grow upward and outward, balancing immediate gains against long-term district control.
