About the game
Kickstarter Backers received these four bonus roles and Five community tiles. Four Role Cards: Detective allows you to combine your zone tiles and the zone tiles of another player, choose the four you want to keep, and give the remaining four back to that other player. City Planner allows you to rotate any zone tiles you control, thus changing the road layouts and possible zone combinations before you place building tiles on them. Foreign Investor earns you floor points for even numbered floors. You already earn points for odd numbered floors, so now you'll be able to earn a bonus for every upper floor you add to the city. Re-Elected Socialite is a great last-round role as she allows you to choose a role card from any role that any players used in a previous round. Five Community Tiles Power Plant subtracts a point for any Residential Building added in a surrounding area. University subtracts a point for any Commercial Building added in a surrounding area. Theatre subtracts a point for any Parks & Rec Building added in a surrounding area. Library subtracts a point for any Industrial Building added in a surrounding area. Stadium subtracts a point for any Mixed Use Building added in a surrounding are
