A conflagration of
conductors conveying condemnees to confinement.
Each
of the players fancies himself an engineer of the Hell Rail, conducting
the souls of sinners to their torturous abodes in the great
Inferno. But, only one of them will triumph and be spared
eternal atrocity.
Based in part on Dante's Inferno.
Hell Rail is both a card game and a board
game.
The cards contain sinners (loads), brimstone (fuel), and track,
allowing the cards to be played any of three ways.
Each player has a wooden train marker which he uses to mark his
progress on the board. The cards form the track connecting the
different levels of hell to the front gate and each other. The player's
train is formed of sinners which require the expenditure of brimstone
to move.
Length: 60 minutes.
