Railroad Tiles: Build your rail network, one tile at a time.
Forget the dice. In Railroad Tiles, roads, tracks, and cities come to life thanks to your strategic choices. This family board game , born as an evolution of the popular Railroad Ink, challenges you to build your own network of connections with tiles placed with almost Zen-like care… but with the tension of true urban planning.
In each round, you'll choose tiles from a common pool, creating increasingly extensive connections between roads, railways, cities, and stations. But beware: each choice is final and pushes you into an increasingly narrow spatial puzzle. You can also populate your landscape with cars, trains, and travelers—if you have the space and the right vision!
Easy to explain, but hard to master: Railroad Tiles is a tile-laying board game perfect for the whole family, but capable of driving even perfectionists crazy. Great for solo play, perfect for four, it's one of those games that brings out your engineering side... even if you hate trains.
Because it's a title that deserves its own carriage.
- Draft system with tile selection from the common reserve
- Tactical placement to create connections without blocks
- Bonus objectives for perfect rectangles and adjacent cities
- Suitable for all ages , but with surprising depth
- A train game… without needing to love trains
Railroad Tiles challenges you to connect everything and everyone. And what if you make a bad move? Don't worry, you still have seven rounds to redeem yourself. Maybe.

🐸 HOW TO PLAY
1. Build your rail network by placing track tiles
In Railroad Tiles , each player expands their own personal map by building rail routes with rectangular tiles. The goal is to connect the exits and create the most efficient network possible. It's a tile-laying game that's simple to learn but rich in choice.
2. Each turn choose a tile from those available
The tiles show curves, intersections, forks, and straight lines. Each turn, you choose a tile and place it on your board following a few connection rules. The challenge is finding the right tile at the right time .
3. Connect side exits and create functional paths
Your map has numbered exits along the edges. Connecting them with uninterrupted tracks earns you points. But be careful: unused or blocked routes lose you points! Precision and spatial vision are required.
4. Quick games, zero downtime, maximum reasoning
The game is simultaneous: everyone chooses and places cards at the same time. A game lasts a few minutes, but each turn is a micro-challenge of optimization. It's perfect for those who love fast-paced but strategic board games .
5. Whoever builds the most efficient and cleanest railway network wins.
At the end of the game, the completed routes are counted and penalties for incorrect connections are subtracted. The winner is the one who best used the space, predicted the connections, and made intelligent choices… track after track.

Tracks, cities, and travelers: welcome to Railroad Tiles!
Do you like straight lines? Clean paths? Well-connected cities? Then Railroad Tiles is your new zen.
Forget about dice: here you choose the tiles , place them methodically and build your own railway network, full of trains, cars, travellers and satisfying geometries .
Each turn is a mini-challenge: pick the right tile, connect as many as possible, populate your map , and try to close perfect rectangles for the final bonuses. But be careful: the available actions change every round. And being stuck with a road that leads to nowhere... well, that's not exactly the best.
It's like Railroad Ink , but with even more control, more tabletop beauty, and fewer lopsided dice rolls. A perfect gem for solo play, but also brilliant for 2-3 players .

We played it. And we wanted to make posters. 🐸
We were enchanted. 🐸
Railroad Tiles is one of those games that relaxes and stimulates at the same time : each turn is a mini puzzle in which you look for geometric perfection, the ideal connections, the best combos.
Playing alone is almost meditative, while with 2-3 players it's a light and refined challenge. And then... those travelers, those miniature cars, that essential design... it's a game that seems to have come from a Japanese design app (but done well).
