Vom Kap bis Kairo
Designed by Günter Burkhardt. Published 2001 by Adlung-Spiele. For 2-4 players and takes about 30 minutes. The game is only published in German. The title means "From Cape (Town) to Kairo".
Players attempt to be the first to build a railway route from Cape to Cairo through various terrain types in Africa.
You bid on terrain cards and purchase missing tracks necessary to cross terrain. Each turn, a number of terrain cards are auctioned off and placed before the appropriate player's train, representing the next space to be crossed.
Terrain cards show a number of tracks ranging from 0 to 3 and require from 6 to 10 tracks to cross depending on the type of terrain.
The first player to complete the crossing over eight terrain segments is the winner.
