Happiest Town (2018)

About this game

Take charge as one of many mayors in Happiest Town (ハピエストタウン) to build buildings and attempt to make your city the happiest of all. The game includes more than forty types of buildings, and in the game you earn money, build stuff, earn more money from what you've built, and score at the end of the game with your city's happiness being determined by a "population x happiness" formula.

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 2 to 4.
• Rules load. At 1.5/5 this is a light game — explain it in a few minutes, good for a table that has not played much.
• Age. The publisher suggests 6 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
