Hibiscus and Hurricane
Hibiscus and Hurricane is a shrewd game of exploitation, profit seeking, and risk tasking along the coast of a fictional tropical nation. In H and H you play a civic minded developer tasked with the goal of generating additional profits for your investors while improving the lives of the citizens along a warm, rich, tropical coast that has recently emerged from a long time dictatorship. You score points by developing provinces along the coast, bringing tourists to your resorts, and avoiding devastating hurricanes. Tourists are fickle and don’t take well to nasty storms and other calamities, but are comfortable in places well protected from natures fury while being furnished with amenities and goods. Players rush to fill the limited capacity of each province while placing "clouds" along specified tracks which will generate hurricanes that can strike their opponents cities and send their tourists packing.
