Rocky Mountain Rails

Rocky Mountain Rails supports 2–6 players according to the catalogue. This range comes from the publisher’s listed player count, so the game can be set up for any group size within it. Some setups, rules and scoring details may still vary by player count, so check your edition’s rulebook for the exact configuration.

The listed playing time for Rocky Mountain Rails is 120 minutes. This is the publisher’s estimate for a full game. The actual duration depends on the group, the player count and familiarity with the rules: first sessions usually run longer, while experienced groups often finish faster. Setup and teaching time are not included in this estimate.

Rocky Mountain Rails belongs to these categories: Economic, Trains, and Expansion for Base-game. Its main mechanics are Crayon Rail System. Categories describe the theme and setting of a game, while mechanics describe what players actually do on their turns. Each mechanic links to a catalogue hub with similar games, which helps when you want something comparable.

The credited designers of Rocky Mountain Rails are: John Bohrer. These credits come from the published game data and name the people responsible for the game’s design, not its illustrators or publishers.

The catalogue lists Rocky Mountain Rails as an expansion for Rails Through the Rockies. Expansions add new content, rules or scenarios to the base game and usually cannot be played on their own, so you need Rails Through the Rockies to use it. Check that your edition of Rails Through the Rockies is compatible, as some expansions were revised between editions.
