Description

In Flip Freighters, you take on the role of a freight company owner, navigating the challenges of loading and delivering goods to customers. With a playtime of just 10 to 20 minutes, this game is quick to learn and play, making it accessible to a wide range of players, from 1 to 99. The rules are easy to pick up, and the game mechanics, such as pick-up and deliver, push your luck, and end game bonuses, add a layer of excitement and strategy to the game. As you play, you'll need to balance the risk of sending out partially loaded trucks with the potential reward of waiting for a full load. As you flip over cards and use them to load and move your trucks, you'll need to think carefully about your decisions. The earlier you deliver, the more you'll get paid, so time is of the essence. With three weeks of gameplay, each consisting of five turns, you'll need to plan your moves wisely to maximize your earnings. The game ends after three weeks, and the player with the most money wins, with the number of delivered trucks serving as a tiebreaker. With its unique blend of puzzle-solving and strategic planning, Flip Freighters is a fun and engaging game that's perfect for players of all ages and skill levels.
