(GAME SUMMARY)
|
|
|
| Drake says: "In Age of Steam players are trying to be the biggest and best in the locomotive industry! They issue shares, bid during auctions, select actions, build tracks, move goods, collect income, pay expenses, and grow goods all while worrying about gaining Victory Points. The player with the most victory points at the end of the game wins!"

Description:
Age of Steam relives the era when pioneering US railroads built the tracks that transformed America's economy. The cut-throat action is centered on the industrial powerhouses of the growing nation: Pittsburgh, Cincinnati, Chicago and beyond.
Challenges that await you: Can you finance both the most extensive track network and the most powerful locomotives? Which routes will give the best returns on their costs? Can you beat the opposition to the most lucrative shipments? Will you make enough money to pay your aggressive creditors?
Competition is brutal, with the game usually going to the player who plans most carefully. Each self-contained phase in the game keeps players constantly involved in making vital decisions and interacting with other players. Age of Steam also allows towns to be developed into cities, ensuring that no two games are exactly the same.
