Mini Express – Board Game

Description

America is no longer the New Colony; it’s the New World. Your fellow Americans are no longer content with just the Eastern Seaboard. Cheap land, whispers of gold, and the lure of adventure are driving more and more entrepreneurs into the wilds of the west. The fever overwhelms you; every step you take, no matter which way you go, your eyes look westward

Mini Express is a strategic train game for 1 to 5 players where you and other wealthy capitalists manage four railroad companies. Through careful planning and ruthless execution, players pioneer the westetrn expansion of the 19th century vying to be the most influential railroad baron and complete the transcontinental railroad.

Each turn, you must decide between 2 actions: increase your holding in a railroad company by taking a share in it, or build track for one of them, extending the reach of its network with the aim of improving the value of your own shares. The player with the highest-valued share portfolio at the end of the game will win!
