About the Game

Step back in time to the dazzling world of the roaring 20's, where the city's destiny rests in your hands! As a visionary real estate developer, your mission is to achieve fame and recognition by strategically placing your buildings in the largest metropolis on the East Coast. Welcome to Gilded Heights, the thrilling city builder card game that will test your wits and strategic prowess.

Construct magnificent buildings every round and watch the cityscape transform into a testament to your ambition.

Only the savviest minds will rise to the top.

Discover four distinct types of buildings at your disposal: Residential properties, steady point collectors; Landmarks, immovable monuments to your vision; Industries, influencers of property value; and Influence cards, the perfect tools to annoy your rivals. Master their unique abilities to shape the city in your image.

Are you ready to immerse yourself in the allure of the 20's, embrace the thrill of building a skyline, and outwit your adversaries in a game of strategy and cunning? Gilded Heights awaits you, where fame, fortune, and architectural legacy are within your grasp.
