Congo Line is a game where goods move from city to city across the Congo. During each turn, players will chose whether to load their goods onto a train or move a train toward the next city. Players also have the opportunity to purchase stock in the train companies as well. When a train reaches the next city, stocks and goods are converted into money. At the end of the game, the player with the most money wins! As the trains travel along the tracks, however, they are at risk of being robbed. Similarly, the stockholders are subject to being bought out or of seeing the value of their stock diminish!
Each game includes board, a 5-page rule set, dice, cubes for goods, stock tokens, chips, and train pieces.
