Micro City (Second Edition) KS

Dice rolling in a game can be used for many things, randomness being the most obvious. Dice can also be used as counters. The dice themselves can be unique and different sizes, shapes and colors to represent different things.
Dice Rolling
Hand management games are games with cards in them that reward players for playing the cards in certain sequences or groups. The optimal sequence/grouping may vary, depending on board position, cards held and cards played by opponents. Managing your hand means gaining the most value out of available cards under given circumstances. Cards often have multiple uses in the game, further obfuscating an "optimal" sequence.
Hand Management
Play occurs upon a modular board that is composed of multiple pieces, often tiles or cards. In many games, board placement is randomized, leading to different possibilities for strategy and exploration.Some games in this category have multiple boards which are not used simultaneously, preserving table space. Unused boards remain out of play until they are required.
Modular Board
This mechanism requires players to select individual actions from a set of actions available to all players. Players generally select actions one-at-a-time and in turn order. There is usually(*) a limit on the number of times a single action may be taken. Actions are commonly selected by the placement of game pieces or tokens on the selected actions. Each player usually has a limited number of pieces with which to participate in the process.

  1. Kickstarter copy https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/thistroygames/micro-city-pocket-sized-citybuilding-game

  2. 7 out of 10

    A fun little building game. I'm intrigued by the 2 player co-op mode. I haven't explored all the varients yet. It maybe something I can play with my wife, or as a quick 2 player at the end of a game meetup.

  3. 6.5 out of 10

    An interesting combination of dice and card play make this a very unique-feeling little game. You have to balance probabilities with building goals, and there are a couple of ways to get around bad rolls. It's a short game, but decisions matter, making this feel like a "bigger" game than what comes in this small box. Great for travel (though to be honest I'm not sure how much I'll be pulling this out to play at home).

Build your city wherever you want! At home, on the train, on the plane. As the name says, Micro City is a small game about building your city. Several game modes, various challenges, different levels of difficulty and random distribution of districts will make each game different!

Your goal will vary depending on the mode chosen, but it’s all about building structures that you will pay for with materials gained with your actions. You only have a certain number of rounds to reach your goal, so plan every move carefully.

Micro City second edition introduces 2 completely new game modes and several changes to the base game. It’s still primarily a solitaire game but now you can also play against another player or face challenges together in a 2 player coop mode.

In Micro City you start of by rolling 2 dice. You then play on of the cards on your hand and resolve its effects. Each card causes your builder to move through the city and perform an action – either basic or an advanced one which requires a correct die. You then gain benefits from the city tile your builder ends up on. Be careful as each tile action uses one of your investment tokens and blocks that tile until the investment token is removed. Also bare in mind that you have a certain amount of time to fulfill your current objective so plan your moves wisely!
