About the game

A night service to Monteverde in 1932. Emil Rudnicki misses an appointment, while his museum shipment raises questions. Working with the train staff, explore six carriages, compare documents and verify passenger accounts. Four journey stages provide three field actions each. Choose locations, conversations and luggage to inspect; document analysis, timeline work and discussion are free. Finding the person, recovering the original artefact and explaining the theft are assessed separately. Three levels of help cost no actions. For 2–6 players aged 14+ and a separate game master. The train and countries are fictional. Play is offline. All game materials are in Polish; this description is in English. Play time of 120–180 minutes and preparation of 35–50 minutes are estimates. Minute-by-minute chronology, simulations and PDFs have been checked; human sessions and physical printing remain pending.

What is included?

A two-sheet plan of six carriages, six portrait character cards, 24 evidence items, four stage cards, a timeline and a report. Photographic object illustrations have separate controlled detail enlargements; receipts, registers and letters use distinct layouts. Eighteen illustrations, Start and a separate GM guide with conversations, chronology, hints and endings. Colour and black-and-white sets, opening pages and a print guide.
