The Erie Canal

2–2 players · 30 min

More like 'Spin and Move' since the randomizer is a spinner instead of dice, players compete to make the most money delivering goods on the Erie Canal. Each player starts at a different end of the canal and navigates the waterway, trying to make the most profit and avoid fines. The Erie Canal lets you relive trade and travel during the 1830s on one of America’s greatest canals, the E-RI-E! Encounter locks, weigh locks, tolls, fines, and the many hazards found along the canal in this interpretive and delightful game.
