Description:

Hot rain falls down upon a cold, rotting city. Here the Yugai, a species of militant humanoids, leave the survivors of the worlds they have ransacked and destroyed.

It is a prison and a work camp, a place for those who lived through Yugai invasion to live out their remaining years as slaves. This is Gatorum, the City of Remnants.

In City of Remnants, players take on the roles of gang leaders, each one with unique qualities and motivations. Players will struggle to control the city, but only the winner can decide the city's future. Many paths to victory lie before you.

Bid for gang members who provide a variety of shady skills. Get an edge with weapons and other sundries from the black market. Build districts that can provide you with advantages, production and income, but beware because a greedy opponent might sweep in and take over the work of your own hands.

City of Remnants combines strong resource management, auction, and conversion mechanisms with spatial tactics, assymetric player powers, area control and direct conflict. A variety of tools, different every game, are at your disposal to build up your gang and claim the city for yourself. But watch out for the Yugai police force, who will meddle with everyone's plans!

The Yugai are a powerful race intent on galactic conquest. As they conquer planet after planet, they displace the indigenous races of those planets to refugee worlds. These refugee worlds barely contain the resources to sustain life.

The unfortunate people that find themselves on one of these planets are packed into the Yugai controlled cities, where living conditions are poor but their chance of survival is best. Desperate gangs of refugees have begun to form.

Each of these gangs claims a greater vision and motivation, but mostly they are willing to do whatever it takes to ensure their own survival. In City of Remnants, you will lead one of these gangs. To claim victory, you will need to become the most renowned gang leader. …



Game Board

One side of the game board is divided into a 7x7 square grid. Use this side for the 2- or 4-player game. The other side of the board is used for the 3-player game. The board is further divided into three color-coded levels.

The outer spaces, marked in red, are Slum level spaces. The middle ring of spaces, marked in blue, are Midtown level spaces. The inner spaces, marked in green, are Heights level spaces.

Player Mats

Give each player a player mat. Players use these mats to track several important elements of the game. …



Thunder explodes overhead, and from inside the shanty made of corrugated metal plating, the heavy rain is a torrent of nails falling from the ruined sky. Inside the shanty, water drips or runs from the many leaks in the ceiling.

Min huddles in a dry corner, cradling the toolbox in her arms. Inside that red rusted box is everything she treasures: a faded picture of the man she called father, a ring of true silver she found on a dead child, a scrap of scented cloth that can trigger childhood memories, and the most precious of all, the mirror. …
