The Walled City: Londonderry pits rival politicians against one another to become the first mayor of the city. Founding a medieval walled city is no easy task, however, and you are about to find out just how difficult it can be! The game consists of two rounds, each with multiple turns followed by a scoring phase. In each turn, you play cards to build roads that form neighborhoods with citizens that have allegiances to one of the players. You'll nominate watchmen to the towers, rig districts (gerrymandering), and raise great walls. All of these play a part in solidifying your power as you attempt to climb to the top of the political heap. Providing a safe place to live for the peasants will earn you a large reward, but failing to construct the city wall in time will see the loyal knights abandon the city for safe haven. All the while, the Guilds that you align yourself with impart special powers that can upset the plans of your rivals. Move a road to form a new neighborhood where the citizens in your camp are in the majority or remove a wall that protects rival citizens from the ravages of the surrounding area. The Guilds will affect the outcome of who runs the city when the dust settles. The Walled City: Londonderry is a highly thematic and elegant area control/area influence game for 2-4 players that plays in about 60 minutes.
