My City: Roll & Build is a dice game in which over four chapters, each with three episodes, you create a unique city. The roll of the dice shows everyone which building to draw on their game pad, and from episode to episode, you have to face new challenges. First the land is developed and later gold is found. This brings bandits into your city who must be surrounded and taken into custody.
You can play through the campaign or pick your favorite individual episodes or chapters to play over and over again.

5.0 - My absolutely favorite games. You can pry them out of my cold dead hands.
4.5 - Love this game! At the same time missing something that would make it a 5. Could be hard to table, lacking variability, a little light, etc.
4.0 - Really great game, almost always keeping, although has meaningful complaints as to what takes away from the experience.
3.5 - Really enjoyed, don't love it, may lose out to better games but the idea of never playing again is a bit sad.
3.0 - A good game, would play and suggest with the right people, if I never played it again wouldn't lose any sleep.
2.5 - A game I'd play again , but will never suggest it myself
2.0 - A game I don't want to play again
1.5 - A game I can't find any reason to recommend
1.0 - A game that is just bad.

If you're worried about the longevity, do what I do with every game that comes with sheets: laminate a complete set for each possible player. :) You can use a permanent marker to write on them once laminated, then use a damp cloth / a dry-wipe marker to clear off the permanent marker making them re-usable. (I use a permanent marker rather than a dry-wipe marker as I get really fed up accidently brushing against something that I have marked and smudging / removing something I have already put on.

I usually push off doing that until I get to the end of the pads... Which doesn't usually happen 🙂
This is nice and quick. Getting my husband who is not a gamer was a positive!

It's just so satisfying
I've played this game through the entire campaign twice on my vacation (once with 2 and once with 4) and had an amazing time with it ;). Take it to the beach or sth, it's great.

Wow, glad you're getting in that many plays :)
I started My Island a couple of nights ago with my husband and stepson. Teenager E won the first two games and was incredibly proud of himself. Then strategy slowly started getting added and he’s come in last ever since. I need to be careful or he will stop playing with us…. I wonder if the roll and build style would fit him better

Nice :) I really want to play and finish that one already.
I love roll and build. I’m not as much of a fan of my city and it’s probably mostly because you can invert the pieces. But yes one episode of roll and build is not enough

What roll and builds could you suggest to someone (me) who wants to buy a good solo roll and write for travel?
Thanks for this, i got the game for Christmas, haven't played it yet but was slightly disappointed with the dice tower review, Chris hated it.

Not all games are for everyone, there are plenty of popular games I don't like either, I think this one has a lot of charm, but I'm also coming in as a fan of my city
