About the game

What is 1822MX?

Set in Mexico, this is an 18xx game about wealthy investors buying and selling shares in the nation's burgeoning railway industry. Based on Francis Tresham's 1829, and more specifically inspired by Simon Cutforth's 1822: The Railways of Great Britain, this 18xx title features multiple auction rounds throughout the game, distributing the minor companies, private companies, and concessions in a randomized order, ensuring each game will play out quite differently.
