Description
In Transatlantic, you'll lead your own shipping company, navigating the high seas and competing against other players to transport freight, mail, and passengers around the globe. The game is set during the golden age of steamships, from the 1870s to the start of WWI, and features historical vessels with unique technical specs. As you build your fleet, you'll need to balance the purchase of new steamships with the acquisition of coal bunkers and trade posts to keep your business thriving. With a playtime of 60 to 120 minutes, Transatlantic offers a engaging and challenging experience for 2 to 4 players. The game is driven by a card system, where you'll play one card per turn and execute the related action, building your deck and improving your possibilities as you go. With normal complexity and a focus on strategy, Transatlantic is a great fit for fans of economic and industry-themed games, offering a fun and interactive experience with tough decisions and low luck.
