Description
Martian Rails is a thrilling railroad building game set on the planet Mars, where players can immerse themselves in a world of science fiction. The game captures the essence of Mars from various stories, ranging from a planet with canals and noble savages to a cold, high-altitude desert globe. With its unique mechanics, including the Crayon Rail System and Hexagon Grid, players must think strategically to build their railroad empire. As 2 to 6 players compete, they'll need to navigate the challenges of a 3D map, where the shortest distance between two points isn't always a straight line. This game of normal complexity is perfect for board game enthusiasts, offering a fun and engaging experience that lasts around 120 to 180 minutes. Designed by M. Robert Stribula, Martian Rails is a great addition to the Empire Builder franchise, providing a fresh and exciting twist on traditional railroad building games.
