Naturopolis

Players collaborate to create an unspoiled countryside full of mountains, lakes, forests and meadows while accommodating campsites, rivers and double-line roads. At setup, three cards are drawn to define variable scoring goals that change each session. On each turn a player places one of their hand cards into the shared tableau, arranging zone types to form larger contiguous areas and to satisfy the flipped scoring cards. Players discuss strategy but keep their hands hidden, aiming to meet the dynamically generated minimum score before the 18-card deck is exhausted and the final layout is scored.
