7 Wonders: Cities introduces new black cards to the game, revealing the darker, more complex aspects of city governance and trade. These cards bring in new elements such as debts, diplomacy, and espionage. Now, you must contend not only with the visible threats of military and economic might but also with the shadowy machinations of your rivals.


In this expansion, alliances are as fluctuating as the sands of time, and your city's prosperity may depend as much on the alliances you forge as the monuments you build. With the introduction of peace treaties, the game's dynamic shifts, allowing for moments of calm in the midst of the relentless competition, but be wary; the peace is often fragile and the cost of war ever-looming.


The expansion also broadens the horizon of interaction by introducing city diplomacy and debt, adding a new dimension of strategy and negotiation. Your decisions now carry the weight of silver and the potential sting of betrayal. The strategic landscape becomes a bustling agora of negotiation, where even the most serene city can harbor a den of spies or a trove of gold, ready to be lent at a moment's notice.

Will you invest in your city's cultural prowess, or will you employ your newfound economic leverage to ensnare your neighbors in a web of debt and influence? Perhaps you will be the architect of a city that is a beacon of diplomacy, bridging the divide between competing empires with grace and savvy.


Step into the realm of 7 Wonders: Cities, where the glow of your city's wonders is illuminated by the complex dance of diplomacy, debt, and discreet dealings.
