A cooperative train game where the whole table runs a shared rail network. You set switches and signals, move trains of different speeds, and race to deliver goods to port before the deck runs out, planning your schedules together so no train ends up stranded on the wrong track.
Who it's for
Families and groups who enjoy cooperative planning and train themes, and want a logistics puzzle everyone solves together.
Not for you if…
You dislike cooperative games where one player can dominate the planning, or you crave competition. Solo-minded gamers may find the shared decision-making slow.
Vibe's take
Warm logistical teamwork that tightens from roomy to frantic as more trains crowd the shared network.
