On the Underground*
The goal is to build the most successful underground lines and score the highest points. Points can be collected by connecting lines to various destinations on the board and allowing passengers to travel between stations.
Players represent companies building subway lines in London, managing 2-4 lines each. During their turn, players can build track pieces in any color, extending their lines. They can score points in several ways, such as connecting to national railway stations or creating circular lines. After each turn, a passenger moves to revealed destination cards, scoring points based on the lines used. The game ends when there are not enough destination cards remaining, and the player with the highest score wins.
