Board the Transorient Express and set off on an extraordinary journey from France all the way to China. Along the way, you will travel through Italy, Greece, Egypt, the Middle East and India, passing the majestic Taj Mahal before continuing toward your final destination. Each card introduces landscapes, cultures and iconic wonders while gradually bringing your personal journey to life.

In this family strategy game, you become a traveller carefully choosing destinations and planning routes. To acquire the cards you want, you collect colourful resources represented by small wooden locomotives. Spend them at the right moment to purchase journeys, expand your collection and keep your adventure moving forward. You will also need to watch your objectives closely, as the different goals provide multiple ways to score points and create fresh possibilities from one game to the next.

Accessible without sacrificing meaningful decisions, Transorient Express combines card collection, objectives and combinations in an experience lasting about 30 minutes. You will decide which destinations to prioritize, which resources to save and when it is finally time to spend them. Most importantly, remember to have your passport stamped along the way if you hope to present a journey worthy of this remarkable train.

Transorient Express is for you if you want a family board game that is easy to bring to the table with children and adults while still providing engaging choices throughout the journey. If you enjoy planning ahead, collecting, completing objectives and watching your voyage grow card by card, this accessible adventure welcomes 2 to 4 travellers aboard.

The journey presented in the game goes well beyond the historical route of the Orient Express. Transorient Express imagines a much broader voyage continuing all the way to China, turning the trip into an exploration of multiple regions and cultures. This approach gives the travel board game a distinctive visual and thematic personality.

Transorient Express was designed by Franz Couderc, illustrated by Laetitia Van Gasse and published by Ludically. The artwork supports the international journey by placing its landscapes and destinations at the heart of the experience.
