Abstract StrategyModular Board

Overview

From Website:

In the year 2185, in the steam-driven titanium mine deep under the surface of Io,.... oh, who are we kidding. Steam Tunnel is a great game with no particular basis in reality. Compete for control of tunnels in an abstract game with a perfect mix of strategy and luck.

Battle for control of tunnels in this purely abstract strategy card game by James Ernest. On a wrap-around board made of 36 cards, players flip and capture cards that show sets of tunnels. Connect high-scoring end-caps to score points. The longer your tunnel, the better. A truly engaging strategy game with a lot more involved than you think.

Steam Tunnel is part of the Hip Pocket Games series.
