Every year, Sorcerer City is built and rebuilt in magical new ways, with city blocks moving and rotating in crazy directions. You and your fellow players are rival wizard architects in charge of building the same city district over 5 years, expanding and rebuilding to gain the most Money, Influence, Raw Magic, and Prestige.
Unfortunately, Sorcerer City has a bit of a monster problem, so you must work hard to mitigate the effects of marauding creatures that attack your city district. The architect with the most Prestige at the end of 5 years will be crowned the new head wizard of Sorcerer City.
