donkeykong66Welcome to Next Station: London! You will be redesigning the London Underground system. Create the best lines, have the most intersections, and visit the most tourist sites to score the most points!1archivecontrol_editmode_centercomment000
donkeykong66The game will last four rounds, and during every round you will get to draw one of the four metro lines. This game we get to start by drawing the [green]green[/green] line, as indicated under our player name.2archivecontrol_editmode_centercomment000nex_player_panel_84009731 12
donkeykong66Our green line has to start at the colored triangle here. Looking at the top card on the left we have to connect to a square shape this move. We have to connect in a straight line following the dotted lines. We have two options here: go straight up or straight right, and we choose the first one.3nex_station_84009731_4_3000nex_card_station_current 1 nex_station_84009731_4_3 1
donkeykong66This turn we have to connect to a triangle. You can connect from either end of the line. Let's connect from the square we just connected to, to the triangle diagonally above it. Click on the square and then the triangle to complete the move.1nex_station_84009731_4_3631045b32276310nex_pencilpower_4 13 nex_station_84009731_5_1 18 nex_station_84009731_4_2 17
donkeykong66This card is a joker, you can connect to any shape of your choice. Remember you can only connect from either of the endpoints of your line!1nex_card_station_current631045c30a26f00nex_card_station_current 1
donkeykong66Let's connect from the starting triangle to the circle to its left.2archivecontrol_editmode_centercomment631045c30a26f10nex_station_84009731_1_3 18 nex_station_84009731_4_3 17
donkeykong66Another joker! You might have wondered what this column to our right does. It shows all the cards in the deck! There are 2 jokers, and 2 cards for each of the shapes. That special card on top? We'll get to that one soon. A clever observer might notice that we can use the knowledge of what's to come to plan ahead!1nex_card_station_current631045ed2002b00
donkeykong66Let's connect from our circle to the square below it! It looks a bit different, let's see what happens! Remember to select the circle first and the square second!2archivecontrol_editmode_centercomment631045ed2002b10nex_station_84009731_1_3 12 nex_station_84009731_1_4 12
donkeykong66We just connected to this "spikey" station! These are called tourist locations and you get extra points every time you connect to one! Look at the bottom row of your scorecard to see the first station in that row crossed off, so we are currently scoring 1 point for the tourist locations.1nex_station_84009731_1_4631045ffd352900nex_station_84009731_1_4 1 nex_scorepad_84009731 1
donkeykong66I promised you we'd get to this special card soon! :) We drew a railroad switch for this turn! Instead of having to connect from either endpoint of our line, we can connect from every station on our current route! Click on the triangle up top and then the circle to its right to draw your next connection!1nex_card_station_current63104608af7c310nex_card_station_current 1 nex_station_84009731_5_1 17 nex_station_84009731_6_1 18
donkeykong66The tourist location in the middle here can be connected to with any symbol! This turn we will connect to it from the square diagonally above it. By now you should be able to figure out how to do this!1nex_station_84009731_6_4631046198ed2910nex_station_84009731_6_4 1
donkeykong66Let's talk about scoring. The score for our green line has three components. The first number is the number of different regions your line has visited. Note that there are 13 regions (separated by yellow lines) of which we have visited 4 so far.1nex_scorepad_84009731631046285d52f00nex_score_hood_84009731_1 1
donkeykong66The second part of your score is the number of stations you have visited in your most popular region. Currently we have visited 6 stations in the middle region on top!2nex_score_final_total_84009731631046285d52f00nex_score_length_84009731_1 1
donkeykong66The last part is regarding the number of times you cross the Thames (the blue part across the middle of the map). So far we haven't done so, but every time you cross the river it is worth 2 points! Watch out for the next move as we will cross the river!3nex_scorepad_84009731631046285d52f00nex_score_tames_84009731_1 1
donkeykong66The final score for your line is the product of the first two numbers, to which you add 2 points for every time you cross the Thames!4nex_score_final_total_84009731631046285d52f00nex_score_total_84009731_1 1
donkeykong66This is the last pink card from the deck, which means that the round ends after this card! Therefore, every round you will be allowed to draw at least 5 and at most 10 new connections! We will connect to the highlighted circle here to get our first river crossing! Look closely at the scorecard and you'll see us get our 2 points, yay :D5nex_station_84009731_8_6631046285d52f00nex_card_station_current 1 nex_station_84009731_8_6 1
donkeykong66The next card is a pentagon. We have multiple options to connect from either of the two endpoints, but we choose not to draw any of them. Passing is allowed! If you have no option available to you you will be forced to pass.1nex_card_station_current6310464081e7300
donkeykong66This game was set up with the "Pencil powers" option. This round we have the option to have an extra railroad switch. We have chosen to use it this turn. We click on the pencil power, then the pentagon and then the square above it to activate it. Each pencil color has its own power associated to it.1nex_pencilpower_36310465e85ba100
donkeykong66We just created an intersection between the blue and green line! This is worth points as well! As highlighted on the scoresheet, every station that connects two different lines is worth 2 points! If you connect three different lines to the same station this is worth 5 points and if you connect all four lines to the same station you will score 9 points!1nex_station_84009731_6_4631046735adab00nex_station_84009731_6_4 1 nex_score_hub_84009731_2 1
donkeykong66You only need to know one more thing before you are ready to play. If selected in the game settings, two goals will be available for the game. In the current game, the left objective is to visit each of the 13 regions at least once, and the right objective is to visit all tourist stations at least once.1nex_objective_2631046800dae500nex_objective_5 1 nex_objective_2 1
donkeykong66When you complete an objective it will be indicated here! Every objective is worth 10 points! You are now ready to get started!2nex_score_final_total_84009731631046800dae500nex_score_obj_84009731_1 1 nex_score_obj_84009731_2 1
