I bought this because my adult cognitively disabled son likes trains and because it has favorable reviews. I am pleased with the game: the physical components are solid and attractive (but the train cards are too small to shuffle easily). The rules were clear and we were up and playing with a minimum of effort. The game is simple enough that my son was able to play independently and even win a game, but there is enough variety and challenge to keep adults interested for the course of the game. It takes around an hour for us to play, meaning we can play once or twice in an evening. For an adult it is not an intellectually demanding game; it strikes the right balance between relaxing and entertaining.
