Neat! I like the story but now I want to make a board and actually play.


Board Game Geek has the rules, and some good pictures of the initial board set-up. Looks like you could build a board out of grid paper in a matter of minutes, and scrounge some usable pieces from other games or from stuff around the house.

You can get board game components(meeples etc) on amazon for those that are into developing your own games.

A few years ago at Games Expo (uk) I remember playing an alpha version of a game in development - it was inspired by the Building of Milton Keynes as I recall.


Georgia Tech has print-and-play files available free on their site [1], and somebody made a kit for the full game on The Game Crafter [2]. There are also 3D-printable game piece models on Thingiverse [3], if you want more-accurate meeples.

If you own tabletop simulater for the pc it looks like someone's made a mod for it https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=70717...
