City Flip Roma

All roads lead to Rome!

Using Direction cards, Iconic Monuments, and Urban Planning objectives, players must collaborate to create a coherent, connected city that meets the requirements of Roman dignitaries. Observation, communication, and anticipation will be the keys to success.

Objective of the game

Build a 7x7 grid of cards representing the city of Rome, correctly placing:

• The 10 iconic Monuments
• The Direction cards that connect them
• The streets that connect the elements
• And respecting the Urban Planning objectives specific to each game

Victory is collective: all objectives must be fulfilled to succeed.

Gameplay

Each turn, a player performs two mandatory actions:

1. Play a card: exchange the card in your hand with a card from the grid, turning it face up and respecting its orientation (according to the compass indicated).
• A Monument card must be placed in line with the Direction cards already present.
• A Direction card must point to the corresponding Monument, regardless of distance.
• Monuments cannot be placed on the edge of the grid.
2. Give the replaced card to the next player, who will then take their turn.

Players can discuss freely to optimize placements and anticipate future turns.

Urban Planning cards impose additional constraints: relative position between Monuments, number of cards in a row or column, arrow orientation, etc. Each game offers a different combination, varying the difficulty.

Green cards can be used once to turn over a card on the grid, but will no longer earn points at the end of the game.

End of the game

The game ends when all cards on the grid are face up. The remaining card in hand is discarded.

Collective victory if:

• All 10 Monuments are correctly placed and connected by their Direction cards
• The streets are consistent and connected
• All Urban Planning objectives are fulfilled

Collective failure if:

• A Monument or Direction card is placed incorrectly
• The streets are interrupted
• An Urban Planning objective is not fulfilled
• The remaining card is a Monument

A progressive campaign allows you to increase the difficulty with more Urban Planning cards and fewer green cards. The ultimate challenge: succeed with 6 Urban Planning objectives and no green cards used.
