Description
In the world of Belfort, you'll gather resources and build up the city with the help of Elves, Dwarves, and Gnomes. Elves collect wood from the forest, while Dwarves gather stone from the quarry, and together they can collect metal from the mines. As you construct buildings in the five districts of the pentagonal city, you'll hire Gnomes to run them, unlocking their special abilities. This worker placement game is all about managing your resources and gold to gain influence in the districts and build a thriving city. With area majority scoring and increasing taxes based on your score, you'll need to balance your progress with strategic planning. As one of two to five players, you'll compete to build the most impressive city, navigating the challenges of resource collection, building construction, and worker management in this engaging and immersive game.
