About this deal
There are times when I’ve used a wild as a particular shape, only to realize that none of that shape had been drawn yet and I might get it two more times in the round.
Interchange station points (interchanges that connect different colors: 2 points per interchange connecting 2 lines, 5 points per interchange connecting 3 lines, 9 points per interchange connecting all 4 lines).
Note that you will always use all 4 pencils in each game, regardless of the player count, because each player will use each color once.
It also scratches that route-building itch, the one that makes train games so popular, because it’s fun to make those connections and plot out a route, trying to get from one place to another. There are 2 wild cards which allow you to connect to any station; still following the grey proto-lines on your sheet.
You also cross off the number of tourists sites that your line has visited on the tourist site score track. If you cannot or do not want to draw a section during a turn, you can ignore it and wait until the next card is shown. When the 5th Underground card (pink and yellow background) is flipped, it signals the end of this round. George (11): I think it’s a really fun game, I like the artwork because I can imagine the people in London. It's time to get to the drawing board with this game, as The City of London has commissioned you to redesign their underground network!
