Product Description:

"Ello, gov'ner! London has been devastated by the Great Fire of 1666. Your job, along with up to 3 other visionary architects, is to rebuild it by your own imagined grandeur! The goal of London is to accrue prestige by developing your city in 3 sectors: Economic, Cultural, and Political. As you construct buildings and buy land, you accrue expenses, forcing you to build in moderation or take out loans. Once you've established a few buildings, you can then manage your city, gaining money, prestige, and other benefits from those cards. But inevitably intertwined with these grandiose achievements are another staple of London: paupers and poverty. As your sector of London grows, its poverty level increases. But it's okay to be in debt, as long as your competing architects are deeper in the red" If you're looking for a more historical, strategic card game in the same vein as San Juan, give this a try! For 2-4 players. 60-90-minute playtime.

Great strategy game
I bought this game mostly to become more familiar with London and its history. What surprised me was how intriguing it is to play. Although it takes a while to get the rules down, it's definitely worth it. Expect to take a few hours for the first game or two until you get the hang of it.
