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
It is the early 1800s, a time of immense construction and urbanization. You are a world-renowned master city planner who has been asked to redesign two different cities. Projects of such significance require the expertise of more than one person, so for each assignment you are paired with a partner with whom to discuss and execute your grandiose plans. Will your planning and collaborative skills be enough to design the most impressive city in the world? Between Two Cities is a partnership-driven tile-drafting game in which each tile represents part of a city: factory, shop, park, landmarks, etc. You work with the player on your left to design the heart of one city, and with the player on your right to design the heart of another city. On each turn you select two tiles from hand, reveal them, then work with your partners separately to place one of those tiles into each of your two cities before passing the remaining hand of tiles around the table. At the end of the game, each city is scored for its livability. Your final score is the lower of the livability scores of the two cities you helped design. To win, you have to share your attention and your devotion between two cities. The player with the highest final score wins the game.

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.
