Vom Kap bis Kairo

Players race to build a railway route from Cape Town to Cairo across varied African terrain. Each begins with £100, bidding in auctions for terrain cards and buying additional track when needed. Terrain cards show the tracks already available and the total required to cross each segment. During play, players reveal cards and choose whether to build or pass; completed crossings return the amount of money shown on the card. New terrain is auctioned when a player clears their route, and the first to cross eight terrain segments wins.
