Long ago, in a beautiful eastern kingdom, a queen summoned her city planners to build her people magnificent new cities. Tradition calls for harmony between the human and natural realms, with the shape of a rectangle viewed as ideal for building fortification. The city planners set out to build new cities for their queen. Who will build the best city and be rewarded with all the riches of the kingdom?

In Tangram City, you place city tiles on your board using secret information about what city tile will come up next. As the city tiles are double-sided, plan your layout with the goal of harmony and the shape of a rectangle in mind. At the end of a round, you receive points for the largest rectangle on the board, and at the end of the game, bonus points for harmony between the realms.

Julian ★★★★★

I had no idea fitting those chunky wooden shapes into the city grid would get so tense in the last few rounds. The harmony rule between the buildings and the natural spaces makes every placement matter, and my wife and I played three games back to back.

The puzzle pieces fit together like an actual city skyline, and figuring out where the gardens and buildings balance took my group three tries. We played it twice in one night, which never happens with our shelf of games.

Violet C. ★★★★★

The harmony theme really comes through in gameplay—every tile placement feels like balancing human needs against the natural landscape. I've already played three sessions back-to-back and the city-building puzzle keeps revealing new strategic layers each time.
