A strategic city-building game with a bit of corruption. You can get bonuses on your actions by gaining Corruption, but the game will periodically penalize the most corrupt players.
You'll perform all your actions - like collecting resources, constructing buildings, and repaying favors - on a one-way track. Like other one-way track games, you can go as far as you'd like, but you'll only get another turn when everyone else passes you. You gain 1 VP per floor for each building you construct. Tenants offer powerful actions that change each game. You can collect a tenant power by landing on its space or constructing a building on its card. The round ends after everyone makes a lap around the one-way track. Players score bonus points for tallest buildings in each neighborhood and the game. Players lose points for Corruption, and the player with most VP wins.
Warnings: The event was originally listed with rules of "High Rise (1st)." It has been changed to "High Rise (1st Edition)."
