Tiny Towns
AEG
New from AEG is Tiny Towns, an easy to learn and relatively quick to play while  offering up some mind bending-decision making.  We have an open copy available for you to come in and try.

Tiny Towns
In Tiny Towns, players will have 5 different types of resource cubes to construct patterns on their 4×4 player board.  When the correct pattern that corresponds to one of seven buildings is constructed, the resource cubes are removed and the building will be placed on one of the spots previously occupied by one of the resource cubes.  Play continues until all players have completely filled their board with buildings and resource cubes.  Buildings will score based on their stated condition. Resource cubes each score a -1 point.

Each of the 7 types of buildings have 4 sub-buildings each with a unique scoring value and/or a special ability all of which require a different configuration of resource cubes.  In addition, players can add the hard-to-construct monuments to the game.

Welcome to Your Perfect Home
Deep Water Games
From Deep Water Games is Welcome to… Your Perfect Home, a roll and write game without dice set in the 1950’s.  The goal in Welcome to… Your Perfect Home is to build the best new town by adding pools, hiring employees, improving the parks, and more. 
Welcome to Your Perfect Home

Players will develop their three streets by building houses, identified by their numbers.  Houses will be grouped into housing estates, but only fully-completed ones count at the end of the game.  Parks and pools help to improve the neighborhood and you can raise the quality of your constructions to promote your estates’ value.  By increasing recruitment through temp agencies you can hasten the construction of your estate.
