What is Underwater Cities
In Underwater Cities, which takes about 30-45 minutes per player, players represent the most powerful brains in the world, brains nominated due to the overpopulation of Earth to establish the best and most livable underwater areas possible.
The main principle of the game is card placement. Three colored cards are placed along the edge of the main board into 3 x 5 slots, which are also colored. Ideally players can place cards into slots of the same color. Then they can take both actions and advantages: the action depicted in the slot on the main board and also the advantage of the card. Actions and advantages can allow players to intake raw materials; to build and upgrade city domes, tunnels and production buildings such as farms, desalination devices and laboratories in their personal underwater area; to move their marker on the initiative track (which is important for player order in the next turn); to activate the player's "A-cards"; and to collect cards, both special ones and basic ones that allow for better decision possibilities during gameplay.
All of the nearly 220 cards — whether special or basic — are divided into five types according to the way and time of use. Underwater areas are planned to be double-sided, giving players many opportunities to achieve VPs and finally win.

A right civilizational eurogame, good combination and dynamics, recommended.
Que puedo decir de este juego de Suchy donde tienes que construir una ciudad submarina y que vas combando acciones y cartas?? PUES QUE ES UN JUEGAZO!! Y PUNTO!! eso si, upgradear los componentes que son una castaña.
Let me start by saying that I am going to write this review and evaluate JUST the game, I mean, I won’t take into account the poor components. It’s a shame that a brilliant game like this has got such an iffy quality in components. I would say this is the only drawback I found. Underwater cities is a game with a outstanding mechanics intelligently implemented. We can find mechanics based on card-driven, engine building as well as worker placement. There are two resources of action: board actions and cards. If card color coincides with the board placement, two actions can be done, if not, just
OK, con XL
Comprado con la reimpresión de Arrakis en Diciembre de 2022
Muy interesante gestión con cartas. Materiales regulares, pero el juego lo compensa con creces
