Reimplements Great Western Trail (Second Edition)


In Great Western Trail: Argentina, you own a vast estancia in Argentina at the end of the 19th century, and you will need to travel the plains of the Pampas with your cattle to deliver them to the main train station in Buenos Aries.

Great Western Trail: Argentina features gameplay elements similar to Great Western Trail such as deck management, the rondel mechanism, and the ability to upgrade your player board, along with twists on these elements and new features.

The player board features a new type of worker — farmers — and different paths await on the game board to confront you with more choices. Will you take the road with buildings or a path past farmers? Maybe you'll have the chance to use your cows — well, the strength on your cow cards — to help farmers, getting them on your side and adding grain, a new type of resource, to your income, with grain being used for boat and city tiles.

Perhaps you can unlock shortcuts that allow you to deliver your herd to Buenos Aires more quickly. Sure, you'll forfeit the use of action buildings, but maybe you can catch others unaware, with the ships leaving before they deliver. The timing of reaching the central train station to deliver your herd has never been so crucial, and valuable bonuses await on the city's port tiles.

Money is easier to get in Great Western Trail: Argentina, but you have more to manage in terms of action options, shortcuts, and cards (including the new exhaustion cards), so the challenges won't let up.

Great Western Trail: Argentina also includes a solitaire challenge in which Pedro is waiting for you to try to beat his score.

Great re-thinking of the GWT formula for fans of the original

Great Western Trail: Argentina

GWT:A is a fantastic game. Its system is different enough from GWT to make it a fantastic standalone game. Balancing your deck while making spots for efficient shipping and building give lots of unique strategies to use everytime you play. Love it, and I, generally, dislike cowboy/western themes!

Surprisingly Different

I initially thought this would be a reskin with a few minor changes but it was actually very strategically different. The shipping and grain mechanics are an interesting twist and I really enjoyed it. The core game play is still familiar with the GWT feel too. Only small gripe is the rule book is a big messy and the color differences for the anchors on the ships/cities are very difficult to view from across the table.
