About Expect Delays

Expect Delays is a 10-20 min deck de-builder for 2 or 4 players all about the joys of riding public transit. Players take on the role of busy commuters desperately trying to get to work via an underfunded and barely operating subway system. Players share access to a deck of trains they use to move commuters along their train lines. On their turn players may board riders, run lines, repair trains, or take trains out of service by removing them from the shared deck. Players must utilize this tug-of-war style deck building to make sure their commuters can progress further then those on the opponents line. The player with the most destination points when the deck runs out of cards and the subway comes to a grinding halt, wins the game. —description from the publisher
