In Great Western trail you play a rancher taking your herd of cows from Texas to Kansas City to ship them out by Train to big cities.
At the end of the game, once enough cows have reached Kansas City, the player with the most points will win the game.
The game is very different each time you play it, and it’s great. It also means that you should study the map, the hazards, the job market, and your hand of cows before you decide which strategy might work best for you.
