Lay down tracks in Metro - The Board Game, out now for iOS and Android

Is it me, or are there a lot of board games about trains? I mean, trains are pretty cool, but it does strike me that there are cooler things to turn into card-and-chit based experiences. Maybe I'm wrong. I'm wrong about a lot of things.

Anyway, you can add Metro - The Board Game to the increasingly long line of train-based board games available for mobile.

The game is set in Paris in 1900, and sees players competing to build the longest metro line.

There's more to it than that, like there always is in board games. You're building your line on an intricate grid, and the other players are inevitably trying to stop you.

All change

You've got AI to compete against in single player, and you can play online against your friends as well. So basically that's everything you want from a board game, pretty much.

If any of this has tickled your fancy, you can grab Metro - The Board Game from the App Store by clicking here, and from the Google Play Store by clicking here.
