What players say:
Italian Rails is a great game by Rick Heli that holds up on its own and we have had plenty of fun with this very recent discovery and introduction to the crayon rail series.
–Justus Pang
It was very interesting and fun with cool ferry ports. ... My congratulations to the fine author of this version!
–Andracon (on BGG)
I own Italian Rails and like it a lot.. Thanks for that one too. I'll be buying Founding Fathers, both expansions, and Inventing the Future too. –Ben Baldanza
With Italian Rails, we enjoyed the thought that went in to picking the best loads and maximizing profits by limiting the amount of track you have to buy.
