My City: Roll & Build

Draw the same dice-chosen buildings into your own city, then surround the bandits in a four-chapter campaign.

Published by

My City: Roll & Build is a dice-driven city builder you play on a pad. Each turn the dice show everyone the same building to draw, and you all place it on your own grid however you like, so every city ends up different. The game is organized as a campaign of four chapters with three episodes each, and the challenges change as you go: first you develop the land, later gold turns up, and then bandits arrive who must be surrounded and taken into custody. You can play the whole campaign or pick a favorite episode and replay it. Think of a roll-and-write cousin to the campaign-style My City, with a game taking about half an hour for one to six players. Released in 2022.

Who it's for

You like city-building puzzles on paper and enjoy a campaign that keeps adding new twists without piling up rules.

Not for you if…

You want direct interaction or tough strategic decisions. Everyone builds their own city side by side.

Vibe's take

Quiet, puzzly and relaxed, with everyone drawing at once and no waiting for turns. The fun comes from fitting the same dice result into your own city better than you did last time.
