CityTriXX

From BoardGameGeek:

CityTriXX is a 75 to 150 minutes deep financial strategy game designed for 3 to 5 players where players are investors managing railway companies. Skillfully blending the mechanics of trick-taking games with the world of financial games. You will have to play your hand of cards to obtain the resources you need to make the companies in which you have invested flourish. The game unfolds over 3 years divided into 3 phases: 1. Trick round: win cards that will be used in the following two phases. 2. Operating round: operate your trains through cities to generate income and increase your share values. 3. Stock round: sale and purchase shares in the various companies. I also invite you to have a look at my "Preamble to 18XX and trick-taking players" (https://boardgamegeek.com/thread/3271780/preamble-18xx-and-trick-taking-players). Why the title CityTriXX? I wanted a title that makes sense and combines several of my passions. First, «City» for the beautiful cities and monuments to discover. Then «Trixx» for Trick Taking, which brought me joy for years and that I recently rediscovered thanks to my friends. Finally, «XX» for my economic games with stocks and trains, such as the 18XX series. I also liked the similarity in sound to the word CityTrip, which invites to travel and exploration. I hope this game brings you as much pleasure as I had in creating it and playing it. -description from the designer
