Description Edit | History

Players compete in auctions to purchase different cards representing the districts of Chicago. The innovative bid mechanism is that players may not bid a number whose 'ones' digit matches the number on any card they have previously won. The innovative payout mechanic is that players owning a card whose number matches the 'ones' digit of a bid stand to gain a share of that bid.

Asmodée Editions' Serengeti uses a different theme, instead of purchasing districts of Chicago, each players purchase African art with the local currency "Hongo".

0 "Mafia Cities" redesign
My another redesign for this game presents 6 of the American "mafia cities" instead of just Chicago's districts. Cards are 65 x 90 mm when printed on A3 paper without scaling.

1 Don Quick Reference
There were a couple of mistakes in the scoring section of the original document - the number three was repeated several times and in this new document the offending threes have been replaced by a four and a five.
