Description
All aboard for a trip across the English countryside! Plan railway trips and earn the most points to win this challenging 45-minute tableau-building card game. Players start with a frame from which seven railway lines begin and include six possible varying terrains and features that score with each completed rail line. Assign a trip plan to rail lines before they are complete to add to your game score. Add a terminus card to the end of each completed track to collect coins that help fund additional rail lines and trip plan cards. With a deck of 80 railway cards that provide tracks and trips, there is enough variety to keep this game challenging and provide strategic fun for 2-4 people. As a bonus, it all fits in a small enough box to bring wherever and however you travel! Note: The gaming community believes this game can be played by experienced gamers as young as 10.
Publisher's Description of Village Rails Game
In Village Rails, you will be criss-crossing the fields of England with railway lines, connecting villages together, and navigating the complex and ever-changing demands of rural communities. Connect stations and farmsteads to your local network while placing your railway signals and sidings ever so carefully. Meet the exacting standards of cantankerous locals planning strangely specific trips, and weigh their demands against your limited funding. There is much to balance in this tricky tableau-building card game of locomotives and local motives.
