In the middle of the 19th century, you must take advantage of the steam age and build you railroad empire by developing railroads, expanding buildings, and moving passengers to make the most profit at the end of 12 game rounds! Be careful of your pollution level as it can ruin your profits! The aim of the game is to build the most efficient network to transport the most passengers to make the most profit as possible, avoiding the pollution... You build your SmallCity map with 4 cards of your choice, you still have 4 other cards to perform actions (build a rail link, build a building, move a passenger, take money, decrease pollution...) with combos of icons. The last card is a tracking card (score, pollution, money...). If we use the back side of the front box and the back side of the bottom box, we could have a new Action Card/Map Card... Railways is the first game in the Nano9Games family - consisting of 9 cards, 9 dice and 9 cubes, you must build a network and connect to different businesses in order to move passengers for profit.
