Description

Country Trains is a fun and engaging board game that's all about building train routes and delivering goods across the countryside. Designed by Andrew Muhling back in 2006, the game has undergone many revisions over the years to become the exciting experience it is today. With easy-to-learn rules, 2 to 4 players can jump into the game and start laying tiles to build their train network, picking up and delivering goods like timber, sheep, and ore to earn rewards. The game mechanics are simple yet strategic, with players needing to balance laying tracks, moving their train, and managing goods to maximize their score. As players build their network, they'll also have the opportunity to own and operate their own stations, earning income from other players who use their facilities. The game is won by the player who best manages their resources and builds the most efficient train route, with the game ending when one of the tile stacks runs out. With a playtime of just 45 minutes, Country Trains is a great option for a quick and fun game night with friends or family. Whether you're a fan of trains or just looking for a new game to try, Country Trains is definitely worth checking out, with its unique blend of network building, pick-up and deliver, and tile placement mechanics making for a thrilling experience.
