City of Gears is a steampunk-themed resource management and area control race game by Chris Leder (Roll for It) and Daryl Andrews (Sagrada).
It was to be known as the City of Gears; a city powered by steam and a dream to advance the human race. Robot workers would maintain the city as its human occupants looked on in wonderment at the technical marvels it contained. Sadly, the inventor of this great city dies before it could open its doors to the world. It’s now up to you, a collection of inventors, entrepreneurs, and opportunists, to finish the work that was started.
Bring the city to life, and if possible, take full credit for all the work.

The game is easy to learn and has a gorgeous table presence that immerses players in a world where they're "uncovering" a unique city each game.
