Quadropolis Public Services Rules

Rule 1: Personal safety always comes first

When using our public services, your safety is my top priority. It is essential to remember that accidents can happen anywhere, and while we strive to maintain a safe environment, it is important for you to take precautions as well. Please be aware of your surroundings, follow the designated paths, and report any hazards or concerns to the appropriate authorities immediately.

Rule 2: Respect the communal spaces

As an individual using public services, it is your responsibility to treat communal spaces with respect and consideration for others. This means refraining from any actions that could damage or disrupt these shared areas, such as littering, graffiti, or vandalism. Treat these spaces as you would your own home, keeping them clean and welcoming for everyone.

Rule 3: Be mindful of noise levels

Understanding that public spaces are shared by a diverse group of individuals, it is crucial to be mindful of noise levels. Keep conversations and electronic devices at a volume that does not disturb others around you. This simple act of consideration can go a long way in fostering a peaceful and harmonious atmosphere for everyone to enjoy.

Rule 4: Follow all posted regulations

When using public services, it is essential to adhere to all posted regulations. These rules are in place to ensure the safety and well-being of all individuals within the community. Ignoring or disregarding these regulations not only puts yourself at risk but also creates a disruptive environment for others. Take the time to familiarize yourself with these rules and follow them accordingly.

Rule 5: Be courteous and patient

One of the key aspects of a positive public service experience is showing courtesy and patience towards others. Whether you are waiting in line, sharing public transportation, or interacting with service providers, treating others with respect and understanding is essential. Remember, we are all part of the same community, and by showing kindness and patience, we can enhance the overall experience for everyone involved.

Rule 6: Report any suspicious activity

Ensuring the safety and security of our community is a collective effort. If you notice any suspicious activity or behavior that raises concerns, it is important to report it immediately to the appropriate authorities. Your vigilance can help prevent potential threats and maintain a safe environment for all users of public services.

Rule 7: Take care of the facilities

When using communal facilities provided through public services, it is crucial to take care of them as if they were your own. Treat the equipment, furniture, and infrastructure with respect, reporting any damages or issues to the appropriate personnel. By maintaining these facilities, we can all ensure their longevity and availability for the enjoyment of future users.

Rule 8: Enjoy responsibly

Lastly, while taking advantage of public services, remember to enjoy them responsibly. Being mindful of your actions and their impact on others will contribute to a positive and enjoyable experience for everyone. Public services are a shared resource, and by using them responsibly, we can collectively elevate our community and create a pleasant atmosphere for all.

To play the “Classic” version of the game, just use the 11 Public Service tiles in this expansion that have a “Classic” background. If you want to challenge yourself with the “Expert” version, use the 13 Public Service tiles with an “Expert” background.

To set up the game, shuffle the relevant Public Service tiles from the expansion and create a face-down stack next to the Construction Site. Then, follow the regular set-up instructions in the base game rules.

At the start of the game, draw and reveal the first 4 tiles from the Public Service stack. Place them face up next to the Construction Site.

During the game, when you choose a standard Public Service tile from the Construction Site, you have the option to:

– Relocate a built building to a different location on the board.

– Exchange a built building with one from your hand.

– Remove a built building from the board and place it back in your hand.

Remember, your goal is to strategically build the best city by managing your resources and making smart choices. Good luck!

• If you want, you can put the regular Public Service tile in your city and remove one of the Public Service tiles you can see next to the Construction Site.
• Or, if you prefer, you can get rid of the regular Public Service tile and add one of the Public Service tiles you can see next to the Construction Site to your city.

When it comes to building your city, you have options. You can either take the existing Public Service tile and swap it with one of the visible tiles next to the Construction Site. Or, you can choose to remove the existing tile and replace it with a new one. Both choices have their benefits and drawbacks, so it’s important to carefully consider which option is best for you.

After every round, I get rid of any leftover Public Service tiles. Then, I pick out 4 new tiles from the pile and put them face up next to the Construction Site for the next round. When I run out of tiles in the pile, I mix up the ones I discarded and create a new pile of Public Service tiles (using only the expansion tiles).

Timeless Entertainment

Remember when you were a kid, and all you needed for a good time was a deck of cards or a board game? Those simple games entertained us for hours, fostering creativity and friendly competition. Classic games have a nostalgic charm that transcends time, making them beloved by people of all ages.

Take chess, for example. This strategic game of wit and intellect has captivated players for centuries. With each move, you are challenged to anticipate your opponent’s next action while carefully plotting your own. Chess requires critical thinking, planning, and foresight, making it an engaging mental exercise for players of all skill levels.

Or how about Monopoly? This iconic game lets you become a real estate tycoon as you buy, sell, and negotiate your way to success. With each roll of the dice, you feel the thrill of possibility and the pressure of making strategic decisions. Monopoly encourages financial literacy, negotiation skills, and perseverance in the face of adversity.

Then there’s Scrabble, where the power of words takes center stage. As you construct words from a collection of letter tiles, you exercise your vocabulary, spelling, and strategic thinking. Scrabble helps players improve language skills while providing a fun and competitive environment.

These classic games offer more than just entertainment. They provide an opportunity to connect and bond with others. Gathering around a table to play a game brings people together, fostering social interaction and creating lasting memories. Whether it’s a family game night or a friendly competition among friends, these games strengthen relationships and create a sense of community.

So, why not dust off those old board games and invite your friends or family for a nostalgic evening of fun? Step away from the screens and experience the timeless joy of these classic games. You’ll be surprised at how much laughter, excitement, and friendly rivalry they can bring into your life. Let the games begin!

My City Hall

Have you ever wondered what happens at the end of the game? Well, let me tell you about my City Hall. It’s a pretty important building in my city that plays a key role in scoring points. You see, at the end of the game, I get to score 1 VP for each Public Service in my city, including my City Hall itself!

When the game is over, I get to earn victory points. Each park in my city is worth 1 VP.

When the game is over, you have an opportunity for redemption. If you have two Energy Units on the Reprocessing Plant, you’ll earn 1 Victory Point. It’s a simple way to boost your score and inch closer to victory.

But even if you have leftover Energy Units, fear not! Don’t let them go to waste and potentially drag down your score. Instead, you can place them on the Reprocessing Plant to avoid losing points. It doesn’t matter if you have an odd number of Energy Units. Every bit counts!

Expert Game

The Capitol: A Tale of Public Service and Monuments

When the game draws to a close, something special happens in the city. The Capitol emerges, standing tall as both a Public Service and a Monument. Picture it: a grand structure that embodies the spirit of the city.

The Capitol holds tremendous power. It has the ability to bring 2 VPs for each neighboring Public Service. Can you imagine the impact it has on the city, drawing people in, providing valuable services? Now imagine the Capitol next to a Shop – that’s worth 3 VPs for each Shop it stands beside. And if that isn’t enough, the Capitol blesses the nearby Parks with 5 VPs each. Parks where people gather, play, and escape the hustle and bustle of city life.

But as with anything, the Capitol has a dark side. It carries a weight, a burden – and that comes in the form of 5 VPs for each Factory or Harbor that dares to reside close by. It’s a balance of prestige and consequences that the Capitol wields.

However, the power of the Capitol doesn’t come easily. It requires the presence of 3 Inhabitants to be activated, to reveal its full potential. Only then can it truly serve the public and shine as a Public Service. And if, by some magnificent chance, the Capitol finds itself next to a Monument, it gains even more value, and the city benefits from an additional 2 VPs.

The Capitol stirs emotions in the city’s residents, invoking a mix of awe and trepidation. It is a symbol of progress, innovation, and governance. Its influence over the city’s development and its role in shaping the landscape cannot be underestimated. The Capitol is a unique game-changer that leaves a lasting impression on the city and all those who encounter it.

Welcome to the Congress Center

Hey there! Let’s talk about the Congress Center. This awesome place is like a Public Service and an Office Tower combined. Cool, huh? Now, I’m gonna break it down for you, so listen up!

So, when we’re calculating the score for your Office Towers, we count how many of them are right next to each other. Easy peasy, right? But here’s where it gets exciting: if the Congress Center is next to any of those Office Towers, we add it to the equation. Makes sense, right?

Now, take a look at your trusty Helper. It’s gonna show you how many victory points (VPs) you score for each Office Tower, based on how many floors it has. Pretty cool, huh? Just find the right line on your Helper and voila!

But hold on! We can’t let things get too crazy. The Congress Center doesn’t score as an Office Tower. Nope, not happening. It’s a cool thing on its own, and we gotta respect that. Oh, and one more thing: you can’t stack any other tiles with the Congress Center. It’s a solo act, my friend.

Oh, and just a heads-up: the VPs you score for your Office Towers can’t go higher than the last line on the table. We cap it at 5 adjacent Office Towers. Gotta keep things fair, right?

Well, that’s the lowdown on the Congress Center. Pretty awesome, huh? Now go out there and make the most of it!

When the game is over, you will earn 1 Victory Point for each Public Service that you have built in your city. This includes the City Hall itself.

The Park District: A Rewarding Addition to Your City

When the game comes to a close, you have the chance to earn valuable Victory Points by having Parks in your city.

But what makes the Park District so special? Well, in Expert Mode, activating this district is a bit more challenging. It requires you to have at least 2 Inhabitants. However, the effort is well worth it, as you will reap the rewards of a bustling and vibrant park area.

Imagine strolling through a park filled with lush greenery, tall trees, and vibrant flowers. Children playing on swings, families enjoying picnics, and friends gathering for a game of catch. The Park District brings life and joy to your city, providing a space for relaxation and recreation.

Aside from the aesthetic appeal, the Park District offers tangible benefits, too. As the game concludes, you’ll receive 1 Victory Point for each Park in your city. These points can make all the difference between victory and defeat, so it’s essential to ensure your city is well-equipped with Parks.

However, keep in mind that creating a park area isn’t as simple as plopping down some trees and benches. You need to consider the needs and preferences of your city’s inhabitants. What kind of amenities and activities would they enjoy? Are there enough benches and paths? Is the park accessible to everyone? These are crucial factors to ponder when designing your Park District.

So, if you’re looking to add a touch of tranquility and success to your city, the Park District is an excellent choice. By investing in this district and creating a beautiful and functional park area, you’ll not only please your inhabitants but also boost your chances of victory in the game.

My TV Station Adventure

When the game ends, I can get one Inhabitant for every Shop I have in my city. These Inhabitants are special people who want to visit and support my shops. With each Inhabitant, I have a choice: I can send them directly to one of my Shops to become a customer or use them to activate other buildings in my city.

It’s exciting to think about all the possibilities these Inhabitants bring. I can attract more customers to my Shops and make them thrive. Or, I can use them strategically to activate other buildings and create new opportunities in my city.

As I start the final scoring phase of the game, I feel a burst of anticipation. The decisions I make now can have a big impact on my overall score. It’s important to consider how I use my Inhabitants and how they can contribute to my final success.

Choosing the right path for my Inhabitants is crucial. If I focus on sending them to my Shops, I can elevate the popularity and profitability of those establishments. On the other hand, if I use them to activate other buildings, I can regenerate a powerful response and create a diverse city with varied strengths.

The TV Station is one of the key buildings that can benefit from my Inhabitants. Its presence in my city allows me to gain even more resources and advantages. By following its lead, I can explore new avenues and unlock hidden opportunities.

So, here I am, at the end of the game, with a city full of potential. The Inhabitants are waiting for my command, eager to bring life and energy to my Shops and other buildings. The choices I make now will have a lasting impact on my city’s success. I must choose wisely and strategize for the best outcome.
