Fourth game of Cross Bronx Expressway in the books. Finally a victory! Really flabbergasted by this one, but in a good way. The “interaction dynamic” is equal parts narrative and cut throat. Lots of smart little nuggets throughout. Super relevant given current events as well. Review later this week.

Wrapped up the rulebook and learning enough to attempt a play of Cross Bronx Expressway last night.
During which the Private player needed an influx of cash before the census...suburbanization was the best route. Oof that didnt feel good to do.

last week i had the pleasure of running #crossbronxexpressway for an undergrad class at The New School. always great seeing students connect the concepts from the class to the actions on the board. it's a large part of why i made the game.

As soon as I found out this game existed, I went to pre-order it. I’m fascinated by the history of urban “development” and NBS has accomplished something important and fascinating here. Can’t wait to get this one to a table soon.
