In the original My City, you can skip a turn and not place a piece and lose 1 point, but stay in the game or you could pass for the rest of the game and not lose any points. It made for interesting decisions near the end of the game when you had a couple of pieces left but only a few of them would fit. I'm super excited for this new game and the upcoming My Island.
I'm very glad that the original My City got added to BoardGameArena, I found it to be a great Legacy experience. Hopefully this gets an implementation as well, I'd really like to try it. In the original game your options on a turn were to place that round's building, skip that round's building and lose 1 point, or pass for the remainder of that episode (not placing the building but also not losing a point). There was also a mechanism introduced early (though I won't spoil) that made it possible for you to be forced to pass out of an episode. Are you looking forward to My Island?

In the big game you drew card from common deck and that showed you which tile each player had to pick from their supply ;)
Thanks for the refresher. :)
