About this game

Link City puts one of you in the mayor's chair each round, quietly deciding how three new buildings should connect to the city, while everyone else talks it through out loud and tries to read your mind. Guess right and the city grows exactly as planned; guess wrong and you'll be arguing about zoning for the rest of the game. Trees sprout wherever tiles line up neatly, quietly padding your score while you're busy debating road placement. It's a light, chatty co-op that turns 'where should this go' into the whole game, and six rounds fly by in half an hour.
