Description

Coal Country is a game of strategic maneuvering and clever decision-making, where you take on the role of a mining company boss navigating the cutthroat world of coal production. With 2 to 4 players competing to build the most profitable mining operation, you'll need to stay one step ahead of the competition by influencing the market and making savvy decisions about where to send your most trusted foremen. The game is all about adapting to the ever-shifting landscape of the mining industry, where the price of coal, permits, utilities, and construction can change from turn to turn, round to round, and even game to game. As you build and expand your mining operation, you'll need to balance the need for profit with the need for safety, lest a visit from the mine inspector at the end of the year cuts into your hard-earned profits. With a playtime of 45 to 90 minutes, Coal Country is a game that's easy to learn but challenging to master, making it a great fit for fans of economic and industry-themed games. Designed by Kane M. Click and first published in 2017, Coal Country offers a unique blend of action queue, commodity speculation, and worker placement mechanics that will keep you on the edge of your seat as you compete to build the most successful mining company in the business.
