The Great Heartland Hauling Co.

Players act as medium-haul truck drivers moving goods across the American Midwest, picking up and delivering cargo for large suppliers. Movement around a variable card-generated board consumes fuel and time, and destinations differ in distance, pay, and loading requirements. Players manage limited trailer space and a five-card hand, matching resource cards to load and unload goods while drawing from a shared draft board. Fuel cards power movement and planning, and cubes represent the cargo carried and delivered. The game emphasizes resource management, route planning, and risk-reward choices as players balance profitable runs against fuel and time constraints.

    Big game in a small package. Really impressed with this one. Pick up and deliver is one of my favourite mechanics and this does it really well in a small package with a short time frame.

    A few plays with the kids and it's a lot of fun. Seems there might be a little too much luck involved in the draw, but need to play more and see!

    A great pick up and deliver game, which is a mechanism that is not well represented in my collection.
