![New Game Round-up: Riding the Rails in Europe, Fighting in Greece, and Rummaging Through the House](https://cf.geekdo-images.com/vGunufvuwiR4mimv3whcNA__original/img/v27w3iOVRmZTtyqJm-IE0vjGcOo=/0x0/filters:format(jpeg)/pic2896365.jpg)
In Orient Express, players create passenger routes or some of the most famous railroads of Europe. When Regional Company routes are scored, they are removed from the board as those routes have been nationalized. The game is very flexible allowing players to choose what regions to build in and which ones to connect.
• Osprey Games has been an interesting company to watch since its entry into the non-wargame market with Peer Sylvester's The King Is Dead in 2015 as you have no idea what to expect next. It has a decades-old, yet never before published game about stealthy submarines, a couple attempting to share memories that might be eaten, a more authentically Norse-looking game about racing ravens, a competition for Marie Antoinette's leftover cakes, and now a two-player design from Günter Cornett titled Agamemnon that's due out in August 2016 at the same time as the aforementioned Let Them Eat Cake:
Agamemnon is a fast-paced strategy board game in which two players take on the roles of ancient Greek gods during the Trojan War. By tactically deploying warriors to where they're needed across the board, each player may influence the final outcome of the battles famously detailed in Homer's ''Iliad''. Some areas will be decided by the strength of the warriors, others by sheer weight of numbers, and some by the inspiration your heroes provide.
