How It Plays
Action Queue
You plan a sequence of actions in advance, then they play out in order — think ahead or get left behind.
Income
You earn resources automatically each round based on what you've built up — the snowball effect is real.
Investment
You put resources into ventures that pay off later — patience and timing can lead to huge returns.

Network and Route Building
You connect locations to form networks — the bigger and smarter your network, the more points you earn.
