Whistlewood Express

Description

Whistlewood Express is a two-player strategic duel (with solo mode) where you play as freightmasters delivering goods to the towns of Whistlewood. From the train car tiles in your hand you build a shared train, but you’ll fiercely compete for the most valuable station spots. Each turn you must decide whether to attach a new car, advance the whole train, or claim a station. Every action shifts the train’s position and composition while the available stations steadily run out. Thanks to the variable arrangement of Location Cards, every game is different and asks for a fresh strategy. The box also includes the Freightmaster’s Logbook with 10 unlockable challenges. These scenarios take the shared train across new corners of Whistlewood and unlock new game modes and modules: additional train cars, new location cards, a drawstring bag, plus environment and cargo tokens. Modules can be mixed and matched, letting you dial in more complex, tougher, or longer sessions. —description from the publisher
