## Description

From the manufacturer 2015 Spiel des Jahres Winner 2015 Tric Trac de Bronze Winner 2015 Lys Grand Public Winner 2015 Hungarian Board Game Award Winner 2015 Gouden Ludo Winner 2015 As d'Or - Jeu de l'Année Winner Colt Express Colt Express is a board game of schemin’ and stealin’ for two to six bandits aboard a 3D steam train You play as one of a group of ruthless bandits, dead set on grabbing as much loot and shooting as many bullets at your former companions as possible. Every round, you must determine what actions your bandit will take, whether you’re grabbing loot, firing bullets, punching another bandit, or running along the roof of the train car. If you can predict what your opponents will do, you can respond to their actions and stay one step ahead, but if you’re knocked off-track, you’ll find your shots flying wide. Only the richest bandit can claim victory on the Colt Express when the train pulls into the station! The game consists of five rounds, and each round is has two phases At the beginning of a game of Colt Express, each player’s bandit is situated at the rear of the train. Ahead of you lies the entire train, constructed from three-dimensional cardboard train cars. In each train car, there lies a certain quantity of treasure for you to seize—weighty purses of gold and coins, priceless jewels from the passenger’s jewellery, and a strongbox in the train’s locomotive that’s guarded by the marshal himself. At the beginning of each round, a Round card is revealed, which determines how many turns there will be in this round. Phase One - Schemin’ You and your fellow bandits each draw six Action cards and take turns playing these cards to determine the actions your bandits will perform and the order in which they perform them. For instance, if you want to first advance to the next train car and then hold up a passenger for some valuable jewels, you would play the Move Action card from your hand on the first turn, then play the Robbery Action card from your hand for the second turn. In between your two Action cards, however, each of the other players will have the chance to play their own Action cards, and any one of these could significantly disrupt your plans. Phase Two - Stealin' The action cards are carried out in the order they were played, with a player's best laid plans possibly not panning out due to mistakes and oversights! After every player has had the chance to play an Action card for each of the turns indicated on the Round card, it’s time to determine the outcomes of the choices you made! The first player takes the stack of Action cards that the players created during the Schemin’ phase and turns it over. Then, the Action cards are revealed one by one, starting with the top card, which allows players to perform their actions in the order they were originally played. There are six distinct actions that each player may execute Two of these Action cards allow you to change your position in the train to find better loot or line up a shot against another bandit. The Run Action card allows you to change position horizontally—moving one car forward or backward if you’re on the trains interior or moving up to three train cars if you’re running across the roof. The Climb Action card, on the other hand, lets you change floors in the train, either moving from the roof to the train car’s interior or vice versa. Robbery Action Card The Robbery Action card allows you to choose one of the loot tokens currently in your space and add it to your collection of loot. At the end of the game, all of the loot tokens that you have collected are counted towards your final score. Just because you’ve picked up a loot token doesn’t mean it’s safe. Punch Action Card If you play the Punch Action card, you may target a bandit in the same space as you, choose one of his or her loot tokens, and place it on the floor of your current space. Then, you can move the targeted bandit forward or backward one train car as your powerful blow knocks your opponent aside. Almost inevitably in a robbery of this scale, bullets quickly begin to fly By choosing the Fire Action card, you may shoot another bandit, giving your target one of your Bullet cards that they must add to their Action deck. When Bullet cards are drawn, they are discarded without effect, so they serve a valuable role in reducing your target’s options. For example, if you draw two Bullet cards and four Action cards when you refill your hand at the beginning of a round, you must discard the two Bullet cards, leaving you with only four possible Action cards at your disposal! There’s also a more lucrative motivation to fire your gun, beyond simply hurting your opponents. At the end of the game, the player who has fired the most bullets receives the Gunslinger award—which comes with a $1,000 bonus to be added to your score. I Hear A Train A'Coming Enhance Your Games of Colt Express with a carefully chosen playlist of Western songs and music that can be found on Spotify. Draw the attention of the Marshall with the Marshall Action Card The Marshal is tasked with protecting the passengers and the company strongbox, and he’s not afraid to use his revolver to defend the train. The Marshal Action card allows you to move the Marshal one train car forward or backward. Any bandits in the same car as the Marshal must escape to the roof of the train, and they also take one of the Marshal’s Bullet cards to shuffle into their decks! Grab your six-shooter and climb aboard the Colt Express!

Review: Great Fun, Looks Great & High Replaybility. - This is a great game - easy to learn and looks incredible. The cartoony nature of the design will appeal to the whole family, as will the easy to learn nature of it. That said, great fun to play just amongst adults! In my view, a game that benefits from playing with at least 3 players, as it can be easy to work out the other player’s strategy, if just two. A special shout out to the game designers! The 3-D train and carriages are really well designed and take around 30 minutes to put together. The specially designed box, which allows them to be stored in their built state between games, is inspired and a really nice touch. Great stuff!
Review: Great fun, lots of character, and an interesting game mechanic. - This game is just unreasonably fun. Well balanced, replayable, but really simple to pick up. My board game-savvy friends were all competent not long into the first playthough. As "the board" is just a train, it's easy to play on a coffee table. There's a little bit of first time setup - some absolutely adorable slot together models for the train and some fun wild west aesthetics. I never thought I'd appreciate a carboard cactus so much. Those details really make you feel like the designers enjoyed making this game. The character sheets look great and hit the wild west archetype. The "programming" game mechanic might sound clunky, but it really sets the feeling of a fast-paced battle where you need to think four moves ahead - and leads to some hilarious or awesome results. Absolutely great for the price, too - if I was paying £40 I'd expect some plastic and character models, but getting this much game and such characterful pieces for about £25 is awesome. Building the trains is fun, but you won't have to do it every time - once you open the box, you convert it to accommodate the locomotive and six carriages in individual bays. The box fits all of the parts, and safely! That's something I like seeing in a game design. I'm definitely going to buy the expansions.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Could you please confirm that it does not have the Spiel des Jahres logo on it as shown in the photo?**
A: Confirmed it does not have the Spiel des jahres logo on it .

**Q: Do you have to build the train every time you play or does it fit in the box built?**
A: It fits in the box, which is sectioned for each carriage. Once you have assembled the carriages they hold together very well. You use more of the carriages for more players. The carriages just hook together. It's a great game

**Q: Is this suitable for a two player?**
A: You could play this 2 player but I think it would be better for a larger number.

**Q: what is the size of the box ?**
A: about 30cm by 30cm 
Kind regards

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fun game, great theme, amazing production value.
*by J***R on 9 May 2015*

Unique is perhaps the best word describe this game. An amazing board comprised of a three dimensional train which pieces together like a jigsaw. The train's detail is outstanding, the artwork and unique styling of each carriages interior helps set the scene and atmosphere of the game. The mechanics are good fun and different too, its got elements of card management, deduction and tactical play. Some may argue that some characters are better than others, but I suggest that it totally depends on your style of play. This is a great game for families and/or friends, recommended 4+ players but still good fun with 3. The 2 player variant is also great fun!
