"Routemania is a turn-based strategy game where players build routes to connect cities around the world. Inspired by board games like Ticket to Ride and TransAmerica, players select tickets with specific city connections, collect cards of various colors to help complete their tickets, and claim routes to earn points. Longer routes earn more points and the player with the longest path of connecting routes receives a bonus at the end of the game."
