Watch “Review of Neotopia - Futuristic City Tile Placement Board Game,” a board game review for Neotopia from Party Tails Games on BoardGameVideo.
Description provided by Party Tails Games on YouTube:
Build the most harmonious futuristic city with the abstract puzzle, tile placement game Neotopia from Arcane Wonders and MEBO Games. Players will play element tiles into the three regions and match patterns on their production cards to score points in each region. It’s a fun abstract puzzle game, but the futuristic theme did not come into play as much as we were hoping it would. We’ll give you all of our thoughts in our full review video.
We were sent a copy of Neotopia from Arcane Wonders so that we could do this review video.

About Neotopia, from BoardGameGeek:
In Neotopia, a competitive fast paced tile placement pattern building game, you are part of a team of Visionaries who are building a futuristic pilot city focused on the fields of Energy, Technology, Community and Sustainable food.
You will be building elements on the three regions of the city in order to complete feature cards that you have in hand. A good combination of tile placement and card management can result in very impactful turns, where several cards are completed and the city expands. Interaction between players is important, because all players are building on the same board and can take advantage of what other players have built on their previous turns.
You will try to build the most harmonious city possible, because that will be vital for your score: in the end of the game you will score normally the regions where you have your two highest scores but you will triple the score of your lowest scoring region. So be aware! Even if it's tempting to build on regions that are more developed and where you have already scored a lot points, if you don't start working on the development of the other regions you will not be able to win the game. Balance is the key point on Neotopia, just like the type of future that the players are trying to build.
