Naturopolisis the 3rd game in our series of standalone and combinableSprawlopolisgames. It brings mountains, lakes, forests and meadow blocks to the game, with the added bonus of campsites (which trigger scoring conditions), rivers (which also trigger scoring conditions and cannot connect to roads) and double line roads (which are worth -2 points each as disrupting nature is very costly!)

InNaturopolis, 1-4 players work together to build a new landscape. Using only 18 cards and a variable scoring system, the game is never the same twice.

First, players will randomly flip over 3 cards to see the scoring rules for the game. But not only do these 3 cards determine how you will score this game, they also determine how you win. Total up the values of all three cards, and that number is the scorethat you need to reach in order to win. Each game has drastically different scoring rules in unique combinations, and a new score to beat, ranging from 6 to 51 points.

Each turn, players will play one card from their hand to the growing landscape, trying to score as many points as possible. Players will have to communicate and plan without revealing their own cards in order to most efficiently develop large areas in each of the 4 zone types. Watch out though, road maintenance isnt cheap and each road will cost you points in the end. This is doubly true with Naturopolis double-lined roads as they will cost you -2 points each!

When all cards have been placed, the game ends and players see if they have met the dynamically generated minimum score for their game.

Can you work with your team to make the most of these natural wonders while still leaving space for tourists, campers, and other visitors? Its time to find out!

Wind whistling, bees buzzing, rivers rolling along: the sounds of the great outdoors are everywhere. This open countryside is unspoiled by human hands, and its your job to keep it that way. Make sure the tourists and campers have somewhere to go, but dont let their presence distract you from what really matters.
