About the game
Your job is to collect all the iconic old metal stuff of the households of Mexico's capital: mattresses, drums, refrigerators ... If you manage to complete your missions you will win the game. The road won't be easy, you'll have to be careful and face tianguis that block your way, unexpected potholes and even surprise photo fines ... also, don't step on it too hard! Excessive contamination could land you in the traffic corral. Fierro Viejo is the board game that faithfully simulates the stress of a normal day on the streets of Mexico City, but will reward you for it. And remember: “He who doesn't compromise, doesn't advance” ... but only in the game, don't be a slacker. —description from the publisher (translated) Eres un Fierroviejero y tu chamba es recolectar todo el Fierro Viejo que encuentres. Si logras cumplir tus misiones y llevarte el Fierro Viejo, ganarás el juego. El camino no será fácil, Deberás tener cuidado y enfrentar tianguis que bloquean tu paso, baches inesperados y hasta fotomultas sorpresivas ... además, ¡No le pises tan duro! El exceso de contaminación podría llevarte al corralón. Fierro Viejo es el juego de mesa que simula fielmente el estrés de un día normal en las calles de la Ciudad de México, pero que te recompensará por ello. Y recuerda: "El que no tranza, no avanza" ... pero sólo en el juego, no seas gandalla. —description from the publisher
