About the game

What is Minecart Town?

Create your very own minecart town in this tile placing game! Your settlers have arrived in a promising new land, searching for a prosperous safe haven. Surrounded by nothing other than raw resources, can you lead them towards developing a pleasant and profitable town? In Minecart Town, you earn victory points by constructing buildings, producing resources, building railroad tracks, and running an efficient minecart transport network. Establish the most valuable town by planning resourcefully and via well timed construction! The game takes place over 4 rounds, with most of the action being simultaneous. The resources your buildings produce need to be transported to other buildings via your constructed railroad tracks. With limited resources available, how will you optimize your town? —description from the publisher
