Raising Chicago

Chicago in the mid-1800sa city-wide drainage crisis caused by its low elevation to nearby Lake Michigan has caused significant problems. The city councils answer? Raise the buildings to make way for a new sewer system beneath the elevated streets.

In Raising Chicago, youll compete with other businesses to secure contracts for raising the citys buildings. But be warned: dont overextend yourself! You must complete each building project every turn. Running out of resources will severely damage your reputation and standing with the city. Strategically place your buildings, fulfill the city councils demands, and complete the most projects in each ward to become the most renowned builder in Raising Chicago!

Raising Chicago is an economic city-building game, produced in partnership with Spielworxx in Germany.
