What this is
Send out their architects. They plan carefully as they build a bustling metropolis. The game lasts four rounds, and in each round players first lay out tiles for the appropriate round at random on a 5x5 grid. When a player takes a tile, a figure is placed in this now-empty space and the next player cannot place an architect in the same row or column where this tile was located.
