CHICAGO & NORTHWESTERN: MASTER THE RAILS IN THIS EXHILARATING ECONOMIC SHOWDOWN
In the late 1800s, players take on the role of Robber Barons, vying for dominance as they build railroads from Chicago across the vast plains of America's Midwest. RIO GRANDE GAMES presents this thrilling 1800's railroad-themed board game, where strategic moves and financial acumen are key to success.
Players start by investing in and expanding their own railroads, driving west through the bountiful heartland in pursuit of lucrative profits. Crucial decisions must be made, balancing future growth against immediate income. Timing is critical as players assess the best moments to seize opportunities for maximum value.
With no loans to bail them out, players must manage their money wisely. They decide when dividends are paid to stock shareholders, where to build, how much to build, and when to reap the benefits of presented opportunities. This economic battle relies solely on the players' abilities - there is no luck involved. The player with the most cash at the end of the game emerges victorious, with ties being a rare occurrence.
Designed by John Bohrer and artist Todd Sanders, CHICAGO & NORTH WESTERN is a captivating 3-5 player game that takes approximately 30-60 minutes to play. Expand your board game collection with this ultimate test of strategy and foresight, and don't miss the chance to become the master of the rails.
Whether you're a seasoned board game enthusiast or new to the genre, CHICAGO & NORTH WESTERN offers an exhilarating and immersive experience, transporting you back to the 1800s as you navigate the challenges and opportunities of building a railroad empire. Prepare to make strategic moves, discern your competitors' interests, and act decisively when the moment calls for it.
Immerse yourself in the thrilling world of 1800's railroad expansion and become the Robber Baron who dominates the rails. CHICAGO & NORTH WESTERN, the ultimate test of strategy and foresight, awaits you. Ages 14+, 3-5 Players, 30-60 Min.
