Copper Creek is a game about building an Old West town. Players will construct the town and invest in the businesses, earning money and scoring points. It’s a simple and unusual game with plenty of luck and strategy, and just a little politics.
The deck is 24 tile cards with one or two buildings on each. Buildings earn money based on their open doors, and they also create income for their neighbors based on the doorways they share.
On each turn, the active player adds one new card to the town, and then decides where to buy a share in any building. If the active player makes a buy, so can everyone else, and this repeats until the active player decides not to buy anything.
Once in a while there’s a scoring round, when buildings earn points for their owners, and after the third scoring round, the player with the most points wins!
