Now On Kickstarter: Stonemaier Games’ Between Two Cities

February 25th - via: dicetowernews.com
Stonemaier Games is kicking off a Kickstarter today for the first “gateway game” in their collection, Between Two Cities.

You and your neighbors at the game table will draft tiles to simultaneously build two cities, but only the city with the lowest score matters. Table discussion on where to place tiles is important, as your neighbors are working with you to create these cities–but they will be answering questions without exposing yours or their own strategies. (Read More)
