A cooperative game about building railroads. :) Goal The cats and dogs have made peace! To celebrate, you and your friend need to build a railroad together that connects the two countries. However, cats and dogs don't speak the same language, so you need to communicate without words to align the tracks within three days and devise your strategy. :) How to Play - Communication through words is not allowed, only gestures. You can only see your own screens; - You will have 3 days to build a railroad that goes from your starting points to line 6 of the grid. When aligning the cell phones at the end of the game, the railroad needs to pass through adjacent tiles for the game to be won; - Before reaching line 6, you need to pass through the two stations distributed on the map, which will give extra resources when reached; - Each day has 2 phases: in the morning, you can share resources to help each other in the game. In the afternoon, you can position the rails on the grid. - By combining wood and stone, you build a rail; - Obstacles on the map can be bypassed or passed over using two rails instead of one. :) Resources Rails: can be placed on the grid Wood: found in the land of cats, on forest tiles. Stone: found in the land of dogs, on mountain tiles. EARMUFFS ARE RECOMMENDED FOR A MORE FUN EXPERIENCE :) THANK YOU FOR TRYING OUR GAME!
