City of Gears
Build and upgrade a clockwork city as rival inventors explore the ruins of an abandoned steampunk metropolis. Roll production dice, activate city tiles, place automaton workers, and use gears, sabotage, and steam powers to control valuable areas. Develop a factory with unique abilities and collect prestige before Opening Day. A selection of randomly chosen city tiles creates a different combination of locations and powers each game.
