How to play Chinatown

In Chinatown, players place property tiles, acquire businesses, and trade locations, cash, and deals to build profitable groups on the map. The game feels like a lively negotiation contest in which every agreement can shift the balance, and it suits 3 to 5 players who enjoy bargaining and making practical deals over a 60-minute game.
