The Train Game
A POCKET SIZED
PRINT & PLAY PROJECT
EVERYONE WILL ENJOY
Do you ever wish your family spent less time on their various devices?
Do you find yourself reaching for your phone to appease a bored child when you are stuck waiting someplace?
Why not have an alternate go to option ready to share with your loved ones! Maybe your go to entertainment doesn't have to be on a screen, but something you've created together.
Why not pull out a game that you created and have ownership in, staying off the screen, bringing everyone together playing a game fun for young and old. Don't just download another app, lets make something you'll be happy to share.
Once you purchase a copy of the game, you'll get a link to download a PDF file. Then you can print as many copies of the game as you wish.
From there decide to leave it as-is or color and customize the cards, paste them to some thin cardboard, and cut out your pieces. Either place the cards inside an Altoids tin or a sandwich bag with a 6 sided die and you are ready to go!
With a little patience and the ability to count to 6, most anyone can play (although we suggest 3 and up to avoid anyone accidentally eating smaller game pieces).
Everyone starts with an Engine. Each player in turn rolls to get one of each of the cars 1-5 (no doubles). A player can only roll for a 6 (the caboose) if they have their train complete with cars 1-5 in any order. A player rolling a 6 before assembling a full train passes to the next player not adding to their train.
You can have a train made up of different kinds of cars or all the same kind of car, that is up to the individual player. The game can be over when the first person obtains a caboose, or you can continue with who is left to see who will win next (to avoid hurt feelings).
Roll a 6 once you’ve finished assembling your 1-5 cars to win the game!
