From BoardGameGeek

Welcome to Windcrest, an ever-growing city where the misty canals are graced by majestic flying whales that serve as taxis and freight carriers. Your job is to help make living in and traveling across this city more accessible for the citizens while exporting trade goods to increase the wealth of the nation. In Canals of Windcrest, players will draft and play location cards that will gain them resources and special actions. Resources are used to manufacture export goods and construct buildings that will enhance the locations where they are built. Navigate the canals with whale taxis to transport citizens while also delivering export goods. Players will also have investors to help them in various ways, including special powers and end game scoring bonuses. Every successful endeavor will earn you prestige. Can you master the use of your whale taxis and prove your worth to the nation? -description from the publisher
