Trans-Europe

What is Trans-Europe

The game is played on a stylized map of Europe with a printed transport network. Players are given a starting location, a destination, and 4 transportation orders to 4 European cities. Players set a driving route and move their pieces across the transportation network. The movement is controlled by a turntable. Depending on the freight, one of the 8 possible directions and speeds of travel can be selected 4 times truck (slow), 2 times freight train (medium) or 2 times freight express train (fast).

In his turn, the player rolls the dice once and must either draw and execute an event card or turn the turntable to the left or right and move his figure accordingly. Cities with transport orders and the destination city must be reached exactly.

The player who arrives first at his destination city wins the game.
