Point City: Build it, Shape it, Own it!

Post by DrClick »

There was a time when it was fun to build something out of nothing: a blanket fort, a carton box spaceship, a tree house… There was an “I made it myself” rush, where what mattered was that it was truly yours and that it was yours. You know the feeling.
 
Point City brings that feeling back. Watch your metropolis grow, card by card, turn by turn. You're laying down roads, markets, and civic buildings that all connect and work together. Every card you draft matters. Every building you construct opens new doors for what comes next. It's a satisfying momentum, the same kind rush you had when your blanket fort was complete.
 
But the tension is real: the market is shared and that card you had your eye on can be grabbed by another player, putting your progress in jeopardy. Should you take the safe pick, or gamble on the unknown top card of the draw pile? Should you flip a row of resources hoping for something better, or play it safe with what's already there? These small decisions add up fast, and the tension rises as high as your skyscrapers.
 
Your choices shape a city that's uniquely yours. It doesn’t matter if you're chasing civic tokens, stacking permanent resources, or just trying to out-build your opponents, there's a genuine sense of ownership in what you create.
 
Whether you choose to learn the game, play solo or against up to 3 opponents, you’ll need to draft your cards, build your dream, and see just how far your city can grow.

We want to thank Molly Johnson, Robert Melvin and Shawn Stankewich, the game designers, as well as the Flatout Games’ team for letting us add their game to the platform. And let‘s take a minute to celebrate the work of Tchobello and their BGA port.
 
This was your Monday release.
It is now time to lay that first brick. Take care and play fair...

Does this mean we're going to get Point Salad back?

It is back. I think some time earlier this year.
