■ Product Introduction
[Experience urban transportation in 1960s New York]
The setting is the vibrant streets of Manhattan in 1960s New York.
Players will use taxis and buses to travel freely across this metropolis.
From the hustle and bustle of Times Square to the streets of Brooklyn, this journey through New York's iconic tourist spots is an experience that allows you to experience the true joy of urban transportation.
[Comprehensive game components]
Includes 1 game board, 60 plastic taxi pieces, 44 transportation cards, 18 destination ticket cards, 1 rules leaflet, score pad, and 1 pencil.
Each player starts with 15 taxis, two transportation cards, and one or two destination tickets.
[Simple and strategic game system]
Each turn, players choose one of three actions.
You can either draw two transportation cards, draw a destination ticket, or secure a route.
To secure a route, you must pay with a transportation card from your hand that corresponds to the color and length of the route in question.
The grey routes can be secured with any set of cards of any colour, allowing for a wider range of strategies.
[Innovative differences from previous works]
The game uses a system where points are calculated all at once at the end of the game, and a new feature has been introduced that allows you to earn additional bonus points by securing a route near tourist attractions on the map.
The compact Manhattan map allows for close interaction between players, making for a fast yet highly strategic gameplay experience.
