Between Two Cities: Essential Edition is a tile-drafting board game that has players work with both neighbors to build two thriving cities at the same time.

On each turn, players choose two tiles from their hand and coordinate with the players on either side to place one tile into each shared city. The twist is that your final score is based on the lower-scoring of the two cities you helped create, so success depends on balance, cooperation, and smart drafting rather than focusing on a single masterpiece. This Essential Edition combines the original game and the Capitals expansion into one package, adding more variety while keeping the fast, approachable puzzle at the heart of the design. Designed for 1 to 7 players, play time is about 30 minutes. Available now at Boarding School Games—build better cities together.
