Watch “(Introduction) North Berkeley Game by Alfred Twu,” a board game video for North Berkeley from Alfred Twu on BoardGameVideo.

Description provided by Alfred Twu on YouTube:

In North Berkeley, players decide what to build at the North Berkeley BART parking lot. The neighborhood starts with a mix of high, medium, and low income residents, with more looking to move in. Each player represents different political constituents, some that want to see more homes built, others that are concerned about potential impacts. Will you fund low and moderate income housing, let the market decide, build low density, high density, or a mix? In the second part of the game, additional housing policies will go into effect, as well as additional constituents. What will you build at North Berkeley? Think carefully, your choices will decide who is able to live there.

About North Berkeley, from BoardGameGeek:

The year is 2018. New technology brings unprecedented prosperity to the East Bay, and with it, a crushing housing crisis. The North Berkeley BART station parking lot has emerged as a potential site for new housing, but there are many disagreements over density, affordability, and cost. It's a challenge that new leaders rise to. As you assemble your political coalition, will you be the one that meets the greatest number of constituent goals, and goes on to govern North Berkeley? Based on the real life debate over development at the North Berkeley BART parking lot, North Berkeley is a fast-paced game of negotiation where you take the role of a local interest groups and work out a plan that meets as many of your groups' goals as possible.
