Roll and Rails is a roll&write game. In Roll and Rails players take the roles of railway entrepreneurs. Each player develops their own network of railway connections to transport as many goods possible, to earn the most money and glory. Investing in your rolling stock and carefully choosing the path for your iron trail will bring you funds for further expansions, and precious victory points. The game is played in rounds. Each round players draft dice values to perform actions. Players build their railway network, invest in their rolling stock using resources gained. Next, they try to ship the goods to gain victory points and funds for further development. The player with the most points at the end of the game is the winner.
Roll and Rails has 2 videos from 2 creators: 1 review and 1 playthrough. They date from 2022 to April 2023.
