About the game

Three packets distinguish train movements, responsibility for orders and prior knowledge of the risk. Six optional checks clarify information; the core documents suffice for the report. Evaluate proposed schedules with explicit minute-based rules. Themes include disaster, off-screen death and institutional responsibility, without injury details. The model is fictional. For 2–5 players, age 18+, without a facilitator. Entirely offline play. All game materials are in Polish; this English text describes the product. Intended play time is 125–170 minutes with around 25 minutes of preparation after reading, excluding printing. This is a developed prototype with source review, simulations and digital PDF checks. Playtests, physical printing and independent preparation remain pending.

What is included?

Map and timeline, twelve movement cards, sixteen documents, five profiles, six archive answers and check tokens, nine hints, order-flow sheet, report and answer key. Two complete packages, colour and black and white, with 8 PDFs each, print guide and font licences.
