About the game

What is Steamopolis?

The old Mayor fell between the gears of Steamopolis. Now we need to elect a new one. Of course this can only be someone who knows how to deal with steampower. You feel that you have the guts to run the city, but so do your opponents, too. Now it is time to prove your talent. Steamopolis is a huge steampunk city built like a giant skyscraper of gears and pipes. Different levels provide different services and ressources. To reach them, players use their steam driven zeppelins. They plot their courses, heat up the boilers and then take action. Steamopolis is an engine building game for 1-4 Players with a fair amount of non destructive interaction. Optimize your engine, utilize it and max it to proof your worth as the future mayor! —description from the publisher
