Since 2022, Railways of Sweden has captivated fans of tile placement and auction with its medium complexity design.
How It Plays
Action Points
You get a limited number of action points each turn and choose how to spend them — prioritizing is everything.
Auction / Bidding
Players bid against each other for cards, tiles, or resources — knowing when to go big and when to fold is the key.
Connections
Building links between elements on the board rewards you — the more connected things are, the better.
Network and Route Building
You connect locations to form networks — the bigger and smarter your network, the more points you earn.
Pick-up and Deliver
You pick up goods from one location and deliver them to another for rewards — efficient routes mean big payoffs.
Tile Placement
You lay tiles on the table to build a map, landscape, or pattern — every piece you place changes the board.
Turn Order: Auction
Players bid for the right to go first — sometimes that early position is worth paying extra for.
