Description

In Little Town, you lead a team of architects and must dispatch workers to the town, collect resources and money, build buildings, and develop this little town.

In the game, which lasts four rounds, you can acquire resources such as wood, stones, fish, and wheat from the surrounding squares by putting workers on the board, with three workers being placed each round. When you place a worker, you acquire the resources available in all eight surrounding spaces. You can build buildings by using these resources, and you — or any other player — can gain the effect of the building when place a worker next to it; if you place next to a building owned by another, however, you must pay them a coin before you can collect those resources.

Players collect victory points by using the powers of buildings, by constructing buildings, and by achieving goals dealt to them at the beginning of the game. After four rounds, whoever has the most victory points wins.

Mechanics (from transcript analysis)

Building activation — Adjacent buildings can be activated to gain resources or points; players can activate opponents' buildings for different costs.
Coin economy and resource conversion — Spend coins to buy resources or to activate benefits; three coins can be exchanged for any one resource.
End-of-round feeding — All workers must be fed at end of round; underfeeding costs points.
endgame scoring and objectives — Objectives and end-of-round bonuses influence strategies; endgame buildings score points based on adjacency and other conditions.
Resource management — Manage wood, stone, fish, food, wheat, coin, etc. to construct buildings and pay costs.
Round progression and turn order — Rounds progress with a round token; starting player passes to the next player (with special rule in 3-player last round).
Token-based ownership — Building tokens show control of a building by placing a token on the building.
worker placement — You send workers to spots to gather resources or construct buildings.
