## Description
In Elfenroads, you embark on an elven journey to become an adult! The mission? Visit as many famous cities scattered across Elfenland as possible, using rather uncommon modes of transportation. Think dragons, unicorns, giant pigs, magic clouds, and even elfcycles! The catch is that these transports are limited and only work in certain regions. It's a race against time and other elves to optimize your route and choose the best available transport. Whoever has visited the most cities wins!

This game is an epic combination that unites the classic Elfenland with the Elfengold and Elfensea expansions. Elfengold adds an economic touch, with gold coins for bidding on transports and bonuses for visiting specific cities. Elfensea, on the other hand, introduces a brand-new map and new means of locomotion, like whales and rafts, while maintaining the essence of the elven race. The core mechanics revolve around hand management (transport cards), route building, and point-to-point movement. The open drafting of transports ensures you keep an eye on what others are taking. With a medium weight, Elfenroads is ideal for those seeking a racing and strategic planning experience with a charming fantasy theme. Perfect for families and groups of friends who enjoy games with a good balance of luck and strategy, without overcomplicating the rules.
