In Tower Up, you are a real estate developer vying to claim the skyline, one rooftop at a time. And while the rules may look deceptively breezy, this game packs surprising depth into its foundation.
Simple Rules, Complex Minds
Turns are lightning fast: pick a floor card or break ground. That’s it. But soon each choice is tangled in delightful decision-making. Want that steel floor? Sure, but what will your neighbor do if you grab it? Is it worth building now, or should you wait to stack even higher?
The catch? When you build, you must also add floors to adjacent buildings, often helping your opponents as much as yourself. Strategic generosity or weaponized assistance? You decide.
Like a friendly game of checkers that suddenly morphs into 3D chess, Tower Up grows in complexity as your city sprawls. Every rooftop you place moves you forward on one of four color-coded scoring tracks. Every move is a delicate balance between greed, timing, and tactical obstruction.
Want to dominate the skyline? Better time your build. Want to earn extra turns? Focus on completing track milestones. Want to make enemies? Cap someone else’s tower with your roof. (You monster.)
Each session features randomly drawn objectives to keep gameplay fresh, from spanning neighborhoods to hugging parks or creating dense clusters of urban chaos. Meanwhile, blocking rivals, covering up their rooftops, and keeping an eye on their floor cards all become essential parts of the game’s low-key psychological warfare.
Visually, Tower Up is a charmer. Its minimalist aesthetic makes room for strategic clarity, until a skyscraper literally blocks your line of sight. Yes, that can happen. Rotate the board. You will thank us later.

TOWER UP：建造建築物！
在Tower Up中，你扮演一位房地產開發商，一步步爭取天際線的主導權。雖然規則看似簡單，但這款遊戲卻蘊含著令人驚訝的深度。
簡單的規則，複雜的思考
回合快如閃電：選擇一張地板卡或破土動工。就是這樣。但很快，每個選擇都捲入了令人愉悅的決策。想要那塊鋼地板嗎？當然，但如果你搶了它，你的鄰居會怎麼做？現在值得建嗎？還是應該等到以後再建得更高？
問題是什麼？建造時，你還必須為相鄰的建築物加層，這通常會對你的對手和你自己都有所幫助。是戰略性的慷慨還是武器化的援助？由你決定。
如同一場友誼賽突然演變成3D西洋棋，Tower Up隨著城市擴張而愈發複雜.你佔領的每一個屋頂都會讓你沿著四條顏色編碼的計分軌道前進。每一次移動都需要在貪婪,時機和戰術阻礙之間取得微妙的平衡
想稱霸天際線？那就好好安排建造時間。想贏得額外回合？那就專注於完成賽道里程碑。想樹敵？那就用你的屋頂蓋住別人的塔樓。 （你這怪物。）
每個回合都會有隨機抽取的目標，以保持遊戲的新鮮感，從跨越街區到環繞公園，再到製造密集的城市混亂。同時，阻擋對手、遮蓋他們的屋頂、留意他們的樓層卡，都成為遊戲低調心理戰的重要組成部分。
從視覺上看，**《Tower Up》**非常迷人。它的極簡主義美學為清晰的策略提供了空間，直到摩天大樓真的擋住了你的視線。沒錯，這種情況確實會發生。旋轉棋盤。你以後會感謝我們的。
