I've had the europe version for years now and it's an evergreen game I can play it with anyone and everyone and it's so easy to learn but hard to master and I can't believe people atleast in my country don't know about this ig this is better than most board games and it has everything from blocking each other's routes to spamming locomotives just to tease your friend is next level experience
