Board Games: Streets [SIF 00050]

From Haakon Hoel Gaarder, designer and illustrator of Villagers, comes Streets, an easy to learn tile laying game where 1-5 players build a city together. Through careful planning and placement, the aim is to make the most money from selling buildings. The city is populated by growing crowds of people (wooden hipster, tourist, shopper, and parent meeples) who increase the value of the buildings they occupy, and move from street to street as they are scored. Locate your buildings carefully and attract the biggest crowds to earn more money than your opponents Streets features beautifully illustrated building tiles, custom meeples, and two optional expansion modules which greatly add to the depth of the game. There is also an engaging solo mode where one player must outsmart a challenging AI opponent The Grifter. Box organisation is taken care of with a drawstring money bag and two storage boxes that double as component trays during the game
