Our family loves this game! We try to play board games as a family at least once a week, and this game is often one of our top choices. The objective is to connect as many rails as you can. As the makers recommend, our youngest player is eight, but we began playing it when he was seven. We've also played with adults who enjoy it just as much as younger players. Average game time is around an hour, so it's a great way to unplug from the TV, computer, tablet, etc. and simply spend time together. We look forward to getting some of the other editions!
