“Our life is a constant journey, from birth to death. The landscape changes, the people change, our needs change, but the train keeps moving. Life is the train, not the station.”
-Paulo Coelho.
Let me introduce you to a deep but familly-friendly train game: The Railways of the World Series:
Railways of the World is the most recent version of the base game for Eagle-Gryphon Games' popular Railways of the World series, first published as Railroad Tycoon in 2005. It reimplements the original game with several improvements.
Revisit the early days of the Age of Steam as you begin with a locomotive (the venerable John Bull, the first locomotive to run in North America) and a vision (your Tycoon "mission" card). From there, build your budding railroad network into a vast empire. Connect New York to Chicago, earn the most money, develop bigger and faster locomotives and maybe even span North America and build the Transcontinental Railway!
You will be able to whistle all the way through the eastern half of the United States, but if that is not enough, you will be able to choose a map from 5 available: Travel through Mexico (4 players max), discover Great Britain rails (up to 5 players), take a break in Portugal (4 players max), or just see the other coast of the USA with the Western U.S map!
This game is preceded by the designer's other Winsome train games: Age of Steam, Australian Railways, Volldampf, New England Railways, Veld Spoorweg, Lancashire Railways, and Ferrocarriles Pampas. Railroad Tycoon was the result of a collaboration with Glenn Drover, in which the mechanisms and game-play of Martin Wallace's Age of Steam were simplified and streamlined. Attractive high quality components were added in order to make Railroad Tycoon more appealing to less hardcore gamers and more accessible to a wider audience.
You can play it now on BGA, by just clicking here:

Oh, and you will be able to select many more options to suit your beloved gameplay, like mines, bidding style, city rotors (for Westerrn US map) and more... There is so much to discover! You can play with 2 to 6 players in an hour. Such a big deal!
We are proud to bring you this game thanks to the cooperation of the publisher, Eagle-Gryphon Games, and of course the game designers, Glenn Drover and Martin Wallace (yes).
Also, let's celebrate the wonderful work done by our developer, WetDogIsHappy, who made a wonderful adaptation for us. The game plays beautifully, there are plenty of options for you to choose, and it is a very clean adaptation of the game for you to play on Board Game Arena.
We really wish you will enjoy it as much as we do.
There are always surprises on BGA, but that's it for this week.
*We would like to send you our warmest thanks for being such an awesome community.
So please, take care of each others during this holidays season. And spread love all around you.*
See you next week!
铁路大亨:我选择你!
“我们的生命是一个从生到死的不断旅程。
风景在变,人在变,我们的需求在变,但火车一直在行驶。
生活是火车,而不是车站。”
-保罗·科埃略。
让我向您介绍一个深刻但适合家庭的火车游戏:世界系列铁路:
世界铁路是 Eagle-Gryphon Games 广受欢迎的世界铁路系列基础游戏的最新版本,该系列于 2005 年首次以铁路大亨的形式发布。
它通过多项改进重现了原作。
重温蒸汽时代的早期,从机车(令人尊敬的约翰牛,第一辆在北美运行的机车)和愿景(您的大亨“任务”卡)开始。
从那里,将您崭露头角的铁路网络建设成一个庞大的帝国。
将纽约连接到芝加哥,赚取最多的钱,开发更大更快的机车,甚至可能跨越北美并建造横贯大陆的铁路!
您将能够一路吹口哨穿越美国东半部,但如果这还不够,您还可以从 5 个可用地图中选择一张:穿越墨西哥(最多 4 名玩家),探索英国铁路(最多 5 名玩家),在葡萄牙休息一下(最多 4 名玩家),或者使用美国西部地图看看美国的另一海岸!
这款游戏之前是设计师的其他 Winsome 火车游戏:蒸汽时代、澳大利亚铁路、Volldampf、新英格兰铁路、Veld Spoorweg、兰开夏铁路和 Ferrocarriles Pampas 。
Railroad Tycoon 是与 Glenn Drover 合作的结果,其中 Martin Wallace 的 Steam 时代的机制和游戏玩法被简化和精简。
添加了有吸引力的高质量组件,以使铁路大亨对不那么铁杆的游戏玩家更具吸引力,并且更容易被更广泛的观众所接受。
您现在可以在 BGA 上游玩,只需单击此处:

哦,您将能够选择更多选项来适合您喜爱的游戏玩法,例如地雷、竞标风格、城市转子(适用于美国西部地图)等等...
有很多东西要发现!
您可以在一小时内与 2 到 6 个玩家一起玩。
这么大的事!
感谢发行商 Eagle-Gryphon Games以及游戏设计师Glenn Drover和Martin Wallace (是的)的合作,我们很荣幸为您带来这款游戏。
此外,让我们庆祝我们的开发人员WetDogIsHappy所做的出色工作,他为我们做了精彩的改编。
游戏玩起来很漂亮,有很多选项供您选择,这是一款非常干净的游戏改编版,供您在Board Game Arena上玩。
我们真的希望您能像我们一样享受它。
BGA 总有惊喜,但本周就到此为止。
我们想向您表示最热烈的感谢,感谢您成为如此出色的社区。
