Russian Railroads

Board game

Russian Railroads is a tile-based Euro-style board game for two to four players designed by Helmut Ohley and Leonhard Orgler. The game was published in 2013 by Hans im Gluck in German and by Z-Man Games in English. It is based on the worker placement principle, in which players in turn distribute their available workforce onto open fields in order to gain resources or other benefits, building out rail networks, industry and engineering tracks over the course of a game that typically runs thirty to sixty minutes per player with low reliance on chance.
