Canal Mania*

Players engage in the monumental era of canal construction during the 18th and 19th centuries. They hire brilliant engineers like James Brindley and Thomas Telford to build canals that connect emerging production centers, facilitating the transport of goods during the Industrial Revolution. The goal is to earn more victory points than opponents by constructing canals and transporting goods along them. Each turn consists of three phases where players can choose from various actions, including accepting contracts, exchanging engineers, and building tiles.
