Description

[Edit] [History]

In this short, tense game, players build skyscrapers in New York, with the exact building locations limited by the cards in their hands. Although everyone can contribute to the construction of a skyscraper, only the player who built its top floor can claim ownership. And ownership is important, because at the end of each round every skyscraper you own contributes to your point total, as does owning the most in a single area, and even owning the tallest one!

Awards
