that was time well spent! :)

maybe it's better with 2p? getting to grab 8 items for each round, trying to prioritize what you need most and what you think you might be able to get after is pretty exciting :)

Different shapes might make it easier to pick the type you want from the bag when refreshing the board.

a sharpie can easily fix it (just put a big dot on every red thing for instance) but it's a shame that would have to be done for your group :(

That's impressive. There is basically a 5% chance that any one person has some kind of color deficiency. The odds of over half the group with the subset of red/green deficiency have to be astronomical. Unless they are related or it's an actual club for the colorblind.

@@BrandonGraham yep. I’m the only non-colorblind male in the group. We even have a colorblind female, which is even rarer. PS I don’t know if all of them have the same red/green colorblindness, I just know that they all have some form of colorblindness

it doesn't have the interplay of residental/commercial/industrial, and there's no traffic management which is such a big part of sim city, but it's still a great city building game. i did a top10 sim city style games list 4 years ago kzfaq.info/get/bejne/aM6feKdzxM3Ygac.html and this beats all of them! :)

Excited! (Because, I also loved SimCity). Also, I have been waiting for an immersive city building board game. I have not played on that properly scratches the itch (Suburbia, Lisboa, Quadropolis, etc. - close but no cigar). Thank you!

10% of men are color blind atlanticeyeinstitute.com/symptoms-of-color-blindness-are-you-the-1-in-10/ and the majority of potential boardgame players are men (an unfortunate truth of the hobby at the moment though things are improving) so it's way closer to 10% of potential players than 5% i'm afraid, and i was just rounding up :)

@@rahdo Agreed - Very few, if any women, are colorblind. The colorblind gene is passed on by a woman, not a man. Not picking on women, just a medical fact.

@@rahdo 1. iit is not 10% but rather 8% of man are colorblind (you should search for more reliable sources) 2. so you assume that 0 women will play that game? yes, I agree that there are more guys playing board games than gals. but it is not 0! Instead of making up your numbers by making wrong assumptions (that no women will play this game) just give objective numbers (which is 4,5%) and you will sound much more serious.

there's plenty of sites that say approximately 10%, and besides, if it were only 7% of men, i'd probably round down to 5%. even at it's 8% (bear in mind these are all approximate... it's not like all people on the planet are tested for this at birth) well then i rounded up. that's how rounding number works :) www.colour-blindness.com/general/prevalence/ www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2014/04/140403084243.htm www.sciencedirect.com/topics/neuroscience/color-blindness www.unr.edu/ndsip/english/resources/tips/facts-about-color-blindness also re: percetnage of men vs women who will play, the only hard number i have for you there is that 98% of people who will watch this video are men, according to youtube analytics, and if you go to any major convention and simply look around the floor at who's playing games, the OVERWHELMING majority of what you see will be men. clearly women play games, and a lot of them, but i think it's pretty safe to say that the majority will be men, and since we're doing simple quick easy to remember numbers, rounding to 10% seems perfectly "serious" to me when trying to make clear to publishers how much of their audience is affected by their oversight. ymmv of course, you might note though that elsewhere in these very comments, one player reported that over 50% of his playgroup is color blind!
