About the game
Shrinkopolis: Worksites introduces 4 double-sided Worksite cards that replace players' starting city cards. During final scoring, a Worksite can count as any one reward card type for objectives. Animal Worksites are even more flexible, counting as any animal type and helping complete animal sets. The expansion also adds a new once-per-game Relocation action. A player may cover their Worksite with a previously placed card, repositioning part of their city, creating new connections, and gaining resources from newly formed links. Worksites add new tactical opportunities and greater flexibility when planning and developing your city. Contents: 4 double-sided Worksite cards 1 rules card

Some setups, rules and scoring details may still vary by player count, so check your edition’s rulebook for the exact configuration.
The listed playing time for Shrinkopolis: Worksites is 15–45 minutes. This is the publisher’s estimate for a full game.

Setup and teaching time are not included in this estimate.
The catalogue lists Shrinkopolis: Worksites for ages 10 and up. This is the publisher’s recommendation and reflects reading demands, rule complexity and small components rather than theme alone.
