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.
Game Synopsis: Steam Tunnel is played on
a grid of 36 cards. Players take turns flipping up facedown cards, then
placing stones to try to control sets of tunnels. When a tunnel closes,
the player with the most stones scores it, based on its length and the
point value of its end caps. Some tunnels fork, some tunnels lead nowhere,
but a masterful plan will always get you pretty close to winning. Another
neo-classic Hip Pocket strategy game by the unstoppable James Ernest.
