About the game
Uppsala: Città d'Italia is a re-themed edition of Ausgerechnet Buxtehude, with players now trying to determine how locations in Italy relate to one another. As in Ausgerechnet Buxtehude, players try to place cards on the table according to their relative location in real life. Other players may challenge the accuracy of the placement you made, with the loser of the challenge being punished with additional cards. Uppsala: Città d'Italia includes 200 location cards (170 cities and 30 popular monuments) with longitude, latitude, and other information on the locations. Reimplements Ausgerechnet Buxtehude
