Description

Metropolis is a classic city building game that's all about negotiation and strategic planning. Designed by the legendary Sid Sackson and first published in 1984, this game has been entertaining players for decades. In Metropolis, 2 to 5 players take on the role of city planners, trying to construct the best buildings in a rapidly growing metropolis. The game board is made up of a collection of city blocks, broken down into smaller properties, and each turn players choose a property to build on and try to work out a deal with their opponents to place a new structure on the board. The twist that makes Metropolis really interesting is that the value of each building is determined by the type of buildings in the same block. So, for example, a school and an apartment building might receive bonuses for being built together, making for some clever and strategic negotiation opportunities. With easy-to-learn rules and a playtime of around 90 minutes, Metropolis is a great game for anyone who enjoys city building and negotiation games. Whether you're a seasoned gamer or just looking for a fun and challenging game to play with friends, Metropolis is definitely worth checking out.
