Rival Cities

Description

In 1535, the small fishing village of Altona was founded in Northern Germany, initially posing no threat to its long-established neighbor, Hamburg. However, Altona grew rapidly and a fierce rivalry emerged between the two cities, each constantly trying to outdo the other.
Rival Cities is a two-player game by Andreas Steding setting the cities of Hamburg and Altona in a competitive race to dominate the other in 16th century Germany.

Players must balance a multitude of strategies to outwit their opponent. Whether you achieve one of the four instant win conditions—via prestige, lawsuits, ships, & alliances—or hold fast until the last moment to win with your total score, you will need foresight and clever choices to lead your city to victory.
