Description

Get ready to hit the road with Bus & Stop, a fast-paced card game designed by Saashi and published in 2024. In this quick 15-minute game, 2 to 4 players compete as bus drivers, aiming to bring passengers to their desired destinations while avoiding overcrowding. The game rules are simple and easy to learn, making it accessible to players of all ages. On each turn, you'll either pick up passengers from the bus stop or drop them off at their desired destination, using a combination of hand management, card drafting, and set collection to outmaneuver your opponents. As you navigate the game, you'll need to strategically choose which passengers to pick up and when to drop them off, all while keeping an eye on your bus's capacity. Senior citizens are a special case, scoring points immediately, while other passengers can be dropped off in groups to earn even more points. But be careful - when another player drops off passengers, you'll have the chance to remove matching passengers from your own bus, adding them to your personal scoring pile. The game ends when the bus stop can't be refilled or only a few destination cards remain, and the player with the most points wins. If you're able to empty your bus, you'll even earn a depot bonus, so aim to please your passengers and come out on top.
