A smart strategy game for the whole family. Easy to play, tricky to win. In this game the participants compete in who can build the longest train. There are six different types of engines that can be coupled to cars of the same colour. Who can build the most long trains wins! —description from the back of the box T get ("The Train") is a single-deck card game about building trains - the longer the better! There are six different suits of trains, with 3 locomotives and 8 cars in each. Players must lay down two to five cards to a common display each turn, either lengthening an existing train or starting a new one, and collecting train(s) for points if they wish to, provided they have a locomotive with at least two cars attached. A player who meets or exceeds the length of the so far longest train gains the First Class Ticket which is worth points at the end, while the player who makes a train as short or shorter than the currently shortest one gets the Canceled Departure which conversely carries a penalty. Watch out for cards left in your hand at the end of the game, as they are worth minus points too! A light, quick-to-play set collection game with oversize (long) cards and simple rules. —user summary
