Echo Express

Echo Express is a competitive euro-style game set in 2053, when industrial powers compete to build a futuristic monorail along the route of the Orient Express. Players collect resources, build stations, set up factories, and connect rail sections to earn Prestige Points.

On each turn, players roll dices and move around the board collecting resources that can be used to: Build Stations (give Prestige Points and help expand the network); Build Factories (give long-term benefits); Connect the Route (which is the whole point of the game!).

The game ends when the full route between Paris and Istanbul is complete. The winner is the player with most Prestige Points.
