Get ready for a mind-bending trip with the DeLorean time machine car in Colt Express! This expansion, featuring the iconic car from the 'Back to the Future' movie, adds an extra layer of chaos and fun to the base game. The time travel car attaches to the front of the locomotive, acting as a special access point. Bandits can enter it from either the roof or the interior of the locomotive, using a regular move action or, if you're playing with the 'Horses & Stagecoach' expansion, even by using a horse action. The clever twist is that while multiple bandits can occupy the car, the special action is only triggered if you are the sole occupant at the end of a round. When this happens, everyone closes their eyes while you hide your bandit underneath the locomotive, under another car, or even under the stagecoach if you're using that expansion. The suspense builds as nobody knows where your character has gone! The location is revealed during the stealing phase, and then the mayhem continues. If, at the end of the game, after events are resolved, your bandit is alone inside the time travel car, you'll snag a nice cash prize and all the loot contained within. It's an addition that shakes up strategy and guarantees hilarious moments of bluffing and surprise for Colt Express fans.
