Description
Northern Pacific is a fun and strategic train-themed game where 2 to 6 players compete to make the most profitable investments. The game is easy to learn, with simple rules that can be explained quickly, making it accessible to new players. In the game, players build railroad lines across a map of the United States, from Minneapolis to Seattle, by placing cubes and building track. As the train reaches cities where players have invested, they retrieve their cubes and earn new ones, with larger investments yielding greater rewards. The game consists of multiple rounds, with players tracking their good and bad investments. The player who makes the most good investments wins, or the one with the fewest bad investments in case of a tie. With a playtime of 60 minutes, Northern Pacific offers a engaging and challenging experience for train game enthusiasts.
