## Description

"Epic adventures await you on the Great Western Trail. 19th century America never looked so breathtaking. Great Western Trail Second Edition marks the return of Alexander Pfister’s epic strategy masterpiece with new cool features and new components for an even greater journey.

Hire cowboys, builders and engineers to get closer to your goal: - find cows which increase your cattle - value construct buildings to get more actions - ride your train to reach the farthest cities. With an abundance of strategies, plan all your actions wisely and make the most out of every decision to find the trail to victory".

Review: Great Game That Cannot Be Exhaustively Analyzed - Very fun game and not hard to play. Plus it defies analysis that can make a game uninteresting after a while. After many play-throughs, we still couldn't figure out how to win for sure. Which made it fun to play again!
Review: Complex but worth it for longer game sessions - GWT has a lot to grasp at first. However, for gamers seeking a bit more depth out of their table sessions this is an excellent mix of tile and card type play styles, and lots of ways to reckon with what the board offers. Despite the western theme it's a Euro game, with semi-independent play and each player needing to keep an eye on what others are doing to choose early on a strategy to finally claim victory at the end. There are a number of equally valid paths to victory and the rounds are lively enough once players know the rules. It has a slightly daunting set up and take down because of all the bits but that's a good thing for a fun game, which it is.
