Rio Grande Games
Around the end of the 19th century, a growing network of railway lines was built in Europe, allowing people to travel to the major cities to visit beautiful structures influenced by Art Nouveau and Historicism.
In
Free Ride, you are taking charge of building the railway lines. Connect the cities in Europe and carry passengers to the cities. Your own railway lines and state-owned railway lines are free of charge. If you want to use railway lines of fellow players, you must pay them, which converts their lines into state-owned railway lines.
Choose travel routes from an open display of city cards and fulfill them to gain victory points at the end of the game. The goal of
Free Ride is to visit as many different cities of Europe as possible.
Free Ride also offers a difficult solo challenge!
