As railway moguls, players are given the task of building tracks from Moscow to Vladivostok, Kiev and Saint Petersburg. You’ll place workers in order to lay rails, build engines, hire engineers or construct factories on your own game board. This strategy game with extraordinarily well-written rules has a multitude of possibilities but each action can only be chosen by one player per round. Logically following your plan and quickly gaining bonuses will give you a good chance of winning. The action of gaining victory points itself is reminscent of a good, old steam engine: In round one it’s sluggish and lumbering but at the end the points are flying onto your total. This is because the bonuses you receive early on pay out in every following round.
