City Inc, is a city building card game for two to six players! With an easy to learn, hard to master style of play. Each player is tasked to help build a great city, while trying to tailor it towards your Agenda and Occupation. Featuring a blocky 16-bit art style coming with over 100 cards and a quick to learn rule set making it easy for the whole family and friends to learn and play! Excerpt from the rules: Welcome, rich sucker wise investor! As a new majority shareholder in the company, this orientation tour will teach you the basics of running a multinational conglomerate successfully. By the time we re done with you, you ll have the ability to shape the company s direction as we expand into the city of Metropolitia and absolutely will not be a figurehead whose pocket we re picking. Definitely not. Perish the thought. Moving right along, I suppose you d like a tour of the place? Given that you control it, that seems pretty reasonable. Well, here we go then… 90 City Building Cards 6 occupation cards 6 agenda cards 6 Headlines 1 Rules Sheet 1 Tuckbox That s a fair haul, huh? Just goes to show that a few billion dollars still does get you a lot in the modern world, I suppose. Anyway, on with the orientation. Has anyone mentioned to you that there are three other companies of roughly the same size and resources, all making a play for the same city at the same time? Unlikely, isn t it? You d think we d plan these sorts of things a little better. Maybe that can be one of the big changes you make around here once we ve put you through orientation, huh? --Goal of the game-- Our company can chase the others out of the city in one of two ways. (1) Control 20% of the city s total income before anyone else or (2) Control the greatest percentage of the city s income when the place gets as big as it can be (10x5 tiles) So, I know we re essentially at war with those other corporations and there probably shouldn t be rules about this sort of thing, but there are. If you don t follow them, the other corporations will all call us names and tell on us to judges. Seriously, boss, stick to the rules, it s just easier on everyone.
