Description
Datopolis is a cooperative board game where 2 to 5 players work together to save the fictional town of Sheridan from decline. The town is struggling with shops closing, teachers quitting, and pollution rising, but by using open data, players can create apps, services, and devices to turn things around. With simple rules that can be explained quickly, players take turns contributing to the town's data infrastructure and creating tools that use it. As players trade and negotiate with each other, they'll need to balance individual goals with the need to improve life in Sheridan. With a playtime of just 45 to 60 minutes, Datopolis is a fun and educational game that's perfect for a group of friends or family members looking for a challenging and interactive experience. By working together, players can rescue Sheridan and win the game, making Datopolis a great choice for those who enjoy cooperative gameplay and environmental themes.
