Pacific Northwest Rails (1998)

About this game

This is a rail and stock market manipulation game. You collect stock in various rail lines and run cards on an outside track then complete the runs using the inside tracks. Be the first to get $1,500 in stocks and cash or have the most cash when 10 years have passed and you win.

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 2 to 6.
• Rules load. At 3.0/5 this is a mid-weight game — expect a proper rules explanation before you start.
• Age. The publisher suggests 13 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
