About the game
Town Center: Expansion n°2 consists of four additional player boards for Town Center and twelve wooden cubes in a seventh color, with two different starting configurations. This player board simulates the construction of New York City as a city with such an incredibly high density has to have its own version of Town Center. The board is topologically completely different from the original, which should alter the deepest-rooted habits of even the most experienced players. The twelve new dark green cubes represent the citizens of the city, adding new situations and new opportunities for construction to the basic game. After all, it would be a shame to build The Big Apple as a ghost town!
