Tinners' Trail is a themed Euro game set in 19th century Cornwall. Century plays. You take on the role of a mining conglomerate during the peak period of the tin and copper mining industry. You'll need to purchase plots of land at auctions across Cornwall and examine them for tin and copper, while also managing your 'work points' and money effectively. Once you've established a mine, it's time to mine the ore and reap the profits! But the deeper your mine goes, the more expensive it becomes to mine.

You have the opportunity to improve your mines with infrastructure such as ports, train stations and tunnels (drainage tunnels), but the number of improvements is limited. Can you outdo the competition and make the biggest profit or will you end up with no red fare left?
