Description

Trick of the Rails is a fast-paced game that combines the excitement of train travel with the thrill of strategic card play. Designed by Hisashi Hayashi, this 2011 release is easy to learn and can be played with 3 to 5 friends in just 20 minutes. Players take on the role of investors, collecting stock certificates and building rail networks to increase their value. As the game alternates between stock rounds and operating rounds, players must think strategically about which cards to play to maximize their profits. With multi-use cards, stock holding, and trick-taking mechanics, there's always something to consider. Will you focus on laying tracks to connect cities, or try to sabotage your opponents' plans? The player with the most valuable shares at the end wins, making Trick of the Rails a fun and competitive experience for all.
