I am a little sad this is so far down the list in Rank. This is an amazing game. I played it once and fell in love with it right away and had to get my own copy. It's fast, east to teach and plenty of depth. Great gateway game. I also like the "co-op" element to it. And since scoring are not overly transparent (unless you are really anal about counting all the scores in every city) you never feel like you are losing or behind.

Description
The special edition of Between Two Cities features a limited-run version of the game. The game itself is the same, but the box will be embossed in gold foil highlights and will be stamped with a number unique to your copy of the game (e.g., "1287 / 4000"). The special edition also includes rules in French and German (in addition to English rules).
The special edition will also include 7 additional pairs of city tokens. When we were designing the city tokens, we designed 14 of them and had e-newsletter subscribers vote on their favorites. The top 7 were selected for the retail game, but we liked the other 7 so much that we decided to include them in the special edition for extra flavor. They do not expand the game past 7 players or impact the gameplay in any way.
In addition to the standard city tokens, the special edition also includes the Arc de Triomphe, US Capitol, Brandenburg Gate, St. Basil's, Big Ben, the White House, and the Forbidden City. Each token in the final version will be a unique color.

A selection of reviews rated 8 or higher.
Fantastic game for up to 7 players. Due to the addition of players have a negligible impact on the total duration, we played with 4, 5, 6 & 7 people in sequential games. Fun, borderline addictive, value for money. What more could you want?
This is a very good large-group game, that has an interesting player ineraction. Rather than being confrontational, it is semi-collaborative, trying to get your neighbors to work with you and NOT their other partner.
One of the best. Solo mode and two player games are excellent and highly recommended. Then the standard 3-7 player game is fantastic. The pick and build with your neighbors aspect is so creative. The game plays quick and people often pick up the concepts quickly. Just an all around fantastic game.
12+ plays This is such an elegant and well-designed gateway game. It's the first game I pull out in a group that is ready to move beyond party games, but not ready for a heavy euro. The mechanics are straightforward but interesting, the downtime is minimal, and there is interaction. I find this far superior to the mechanically similar 7 Wonders due to the player interaction. I've taught this game to a good two dozen people and EVERYONE has liked it. Best of all it remains fun for those of us who have played it a lot. This one is an underrated gem. Capitals expansion highly recommended if only to use the 5x5 grid and purple buildings (I haven't taught it with the districts)
CAUTION! Not suitable for children under 3 years of age. It contains small parts which could be swallowed or inhaled.
