Card Game
A new mayor is needed for Quietville, a city plagued by frequent disasters, including an erupting volcano, alien invasions, and a mutated dinosaur. Candidates must demonstrate their leadership by managing parts of the city while avoiding damage from these calamities. The player who can build and protect the wealthiest neighborhood will be elected as the new mayor.
In this card game, players collect porcelain cards while navigating the risks posed by elephant cards, which can harm their collections. The objective is to score as many points as possible through strategically acquiring porcelain. Each turn allows players to buy porcelain, take an elephant, or pass, with scoring rounds determining the winner at the end.
