West Story - A Town Building Game (Gamefound Edition)

In West Story, players build their own Wild West towns by purchasing cards for their player boards. They aim to improve their available actions and score the most victory points. While all actions from the player boards eventually get executed, the order of execution is often unpredictable — players must place their cards carefully to maximize their chances!

Each round, after rolling two dice, all players execute two actions on their boards based on the roll result. The indicated actions are marked so they cannot be repeated until a reset occurs. If, in a later round, the action in a given row is already marked, the player marks and executes the first available action to the right. When a row becomes fully marked, the player removes all markers from that row to start over!

Activating cards based on dice results works similarly to drawing cards in a traditional deck-builder, but it eliminates the need for constant shuffling and remembering which cards are in your deck.

During the game, players can often mark and execute additional actions on their boards to gain more resources and options. As players move along the score track, they reach different regions with nearby towns. Trading with a town is another way to manage the tableau and earn points — but sometimes, one might also have to face a villain!

The Gamefound Edition includes a Meeple Sheriff Badge and all the stretch goals unlocked during the Gamefound campaign, including a plastic insert, upgraded components, and additional tokens and cards!
