Rio Grande Games

We are back in Train Corner.

This time we're looking at a Cube Rails game, Trans-Siberian Railroad from 2015, designer Amabel Holland, published by Rio Grande Games.

Uh, this is a very traditional Cube Rails games in the sense that a lot of the rules overlap with other Cube Rails games that we've played, you and I, Tom.

So I'm not going to go too much into it.

Well, talking about games that are on our New Year's resolutions list, I recently played Bonanza the Duel from 2016.

This is designed by none other than Uwe Rosenberg, published by...

Rio Grande games yet again.

Bonanza the Duel.

I'm amazed that it's still getting expansions in the year of our Lord, 2026.

It's one of the only things that Rio Grande Games seems to be doing anymore.

And, uh, look, if Tom Lehmann wants to introduce another expansion in the Xeno line, if he wants to introduce a fourth round of expansions, a fourth arc for Race to the Galaxy, I'm in, I'm in.

I'm all in.

They've had multiple attempts to do it and multiple chances to fix it, and they still refuse to do it.

I love a lot of games from Rio Grande Games, and I genuinely think I would like Race for the Galaxy, and I bought it because of how excited I was to try and play it.

Is Tom Lehmann?

Tom Lehmann, yep.

So he, he ended up beating us, but, uh, But yeah, it's super cool.

Moon Quality Bloodbath from Rio Grande Games.

It's a weird one and a cool one.

And it's definitely worth checking out.

Yep, we got it there with a U-Haul, and we've collected more since, too.

That was one very generous donation, actually, from Rio Grande Games.

They are a fantastic supporter for us.

I think sometimes people probably assume that publishers wouldn't want to donate games.
