Description

In Foothills, you and your opponent take on the role of gangers, or foremen, responsible for managing your team of navvies as they build railways through Mid and North Wales. This 30-minute, two-player card game requires tactical thinking and clever management of your five action cards to collect resources, remove rubble, build track and stations, and unlock action spaces to earn victory points. As you navigate the challenges of railway construction, you'll need to balance big-picture planning with attention to small details to outmaneuver your opponent and collect the most victory points. With its unique blend of hand management and variable player powers, Foothills offers a fun and intriguing experience for fans of trains, transportation, and territory building games. Designed by Ben Bateson, Foothills is an engaging and accessible game that's easy to learn and play, making it a great addition to any board game collection.
