In this Roll and Move cooperative racing game, players help detective Sir Henry reach Constantinople by train before the Admiral's ship. Unfortunately, some track sections are damaged and must be repaired before Sir Henry can move forward. On their turn, players roll a die to determine whether they will move the Admiral's ship or their own locomotives. Players pick up repair pieces at different train stations but Sir Henry can only travel on locomotives without repair pieces.

Players win if Sir Henry reaches his destination before the Admiral.
