My income has been reduced to zero and my reputation is still launching me past more red barriers. I cross a few red barriers and quickly see the error of my ways. This is what I tried to do, but, of course, the red barriers mitigate this. Without this rule, the strategy is obvious: focus on boosting your reputation as much as possible and start shooting up the population track - those who focus on income will likely never be able to catch up. This is a very much needed mechanic to balance the game, and I very much needed to hear it before starting the game, and somehow I didn't. At specific intervals on the population track, which get smaller and smaller the higher up you go, you will cross red barriers, and when you cross these barriers, your income and reputation go down. But there is one more rule that I didn't hear during the rules explanation - and it totally 100% ruined my game. Most of the strategy and complexity comes from what tiles you buy and where you place them. Then after you place your tile, you collect money based on your income (money buys you more and better town hexes) and gain population based on your reputation (population is points -whoever has the most at the end wins).Īnd that's more-or-less it. Depending on what tile you got and where you put it, your income and reputation will most likely change. You are building a town, and every turn you can purchase a hex tile and place it adjacent to another hex in your town.
To explain: the mechanics of the game are pretty straightforward. But I have no real intention of trying to play it again, so I guess this is what we are left with. I feel a little apprehensive sitting down and talking about Suburbia, since the game of it that I played.well, I never really felt like I was actually playing it.
