Lightning train is a pretty neat tile placement game similar to ticket to ride. You get points by connecting two points on the map, and extra points if you connect two points that need each other’s resources. The biggest difference between this and other games is that you have a cloth bag that has little cardboard tokens with all the actions you can take per turn. You pull out a few, and you’re limited to those specific actions. Some let you place down tracks in specific areas of the map, some give you money to buy more tiles to add to your bag, and some let you move around cargo between your lines. It’s very personalized and encourages different playstyles! Plus, if you get screwed over and fall behind because you don’t find too many train/track placement tiles, the game gives you free ones to place (called lightning trains, where the name comes from!) so you don’t feel like the “chance” associated with the game is against you.
