What is Cleopatra's Caboose

Cleopatra's Caboose: The train game based...in Ancient Egypt?!?

Cleopatra's Caboose is a train game for 3 to 5 players that's based in Ancient Egypt. Each turn, players bid for the right to utilize a game designer of their choosing which denotes both the turn order and a special ability that can be used that turn.

Players construct tracks, ship fruits to cities that need them, construct buildings for victory points and to improve a city's status, and build pyramids to make a city more prestigious. Be careful, though; you have a limited amount of money and actions in which to accomplish your goals! Manage both wisely and become the Emperor of Ancient Egypt!

Pretty strange Game concept, good Euro game that reminds me a lot from Ticket to ride but with a higher game mechanic (make points) It is important to build trains but taking lots of point with the buildings. I like the "trade" and "shipping and Handling" game mechanic, but don´t really like the penalty for producing something (maybe was designed to prevent monopoly) and what i said "what those fruits?" i would rather more Egyptian products like Beer, Camels, Papyrus, Wheat, Gems, etc. I enjoyed the game and as many eurogames feel a little lost at the end where i was the first and ended the la
