About this game

Roll dice, draw routes, connect exits on your wipeable board. Railroad Ink strips roll-and-write to its purest network-building core, then adds lava and meteor dice that create dramatic obstacles and scoring opportunities. Everyone shares the same rolls, so the simultaneous play means zero downtime. The red edition's lava flows spread across your board, blocking routes or creating high-risk scoring zones. Thirty minutes of pure route-puzzle satisfaction.
