About the game

What is Colt Super Express?

Colt Super Express has the spirit of the original, award-wining Colt Express in the form of a fast-paced, survive-to-win format that players can take anywhere. A 15 minute, battle royale style version of Colt Express. Players compete to be the last Colt Express rider standing because there can only be one when this train stops. Each round, players will place three of their four (or up to six if using the optional extensions included in the game) action cards face down in a pile to determine what they'll do when they are revealed, including moving, shooting, and more. At the end of the round, the last train car is removed...and so is anyone in it! Bandits are eliminated by being knocked from the train, or by being in the last car when it is removed. The last one remaining wins.
