How to Play Super Trains: First Ride

 

In Super Trains: First Ride, players take on the role of superhero trains racing around the robot city of Gearland — delivering passengers and cargo, upgrading their trains, and working together to stop the evil semi-truck Rollar.

 

Each turn is fast and exciting, and follows a simple two-phase flow.

 

On a player’s turn, they will:

​

🧠 Roll dice to generate gears and trigger new emergencies
 

At the start of every turn, dice rolls determine which gears trains generate — and whether Rollar attacks or moves, creating new problems across the city

​

🚆 Move their Super Train around the city
Players move their train up to five spaces along the tracks, planning routes to complete jobs while avoiding Rollar and unresolved emergencies

 

👨‍🏭 Drop off robot passengers and deliver cargo
Completing passenger and cargo jobs earns victory stars and upgrades trains with new gear generators, making them stronger as the game goes on

 

⚠️ Solve emergencies caused by Rollar
When emergencies appear, players must spend the right combination of gears to fix them — earning stars and keeping the city safe

 

💖 Help other trains and earn Kind Train cards
If a player can’t solve an emergency alone, other players can pitch in by sharing gears. Helping earns Kind Train cards — always-positive rewards that grant special powers, movement boosts, or extra stars later in the game

 

The adventure continues as Rollar causes bigger and tougher emergencies. Once the final Rollar emergency appears, every player gets two final turns to score as many stars as possible.

​

🚆 The Super Train with the most stars wins the game.
