Featuring unique lake and river dice, it challenges players to build interconnected rail and road networks across dynamic maps in 7 rounds. With 30-45 minute gameplay, it sharpens critical thinking and spatial skills while offering expansion options for up to 12 players. Perfect for professionals seeking a quick, engaging strategy game that fits into their busy lifestyle. ## Description New lands have opened up and the race is on to create the best network of rail and road lines through it. In railroad ink, players roll the route dice and must then draw the subsequent results on their individual route boards. Players score points for having long interconnected routes, as well as connecting the entry points to their board, plus having routes through the center of their Boards. But beware, they'll lose points for leaving unfinished lines. In the deep blue edition, the lake and River dice add in some cool, refreshing waterways to the maps. But in the blazing red edition, Meteors fall from the sky and volcanoes erupt from underground. It's a challenge to keep their roads and rails from getting destroyed, and having to repair them when they are. Or, players can combine the two for epic, 12-player games! ## Features - For 1-6 players. 30-45 minute playing time. Ages 8+ - The deep blue edition challenges players with scenic lakes and rushing rivers. Can players connect their routes through these watery features? - The two Editions can be combined, allowing up to 12-player games! - Number of players: 1 to 6 ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B07GPZYS61 | | Additional Features | Lake and River Dice | | Age Range Description | Adult | | Best Sellers Rank | #64,139 in Toys & Games ( See Top 100 in Toys & Games ) #170 in Dice Games (Toys & Games) | | Brand Name | Horrible Games | | CPSIA Cautionary Statement | Choking Hazard - Small Parts, No Warning Applicable | | Color | Deep Blue | | Customer Package Type | Reinforced Box | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 4.7 out of 5 stars (505) | | Edition | Deep Blue Edition | | Educational Objective | Develop critical thinking, problem-solving, and spatial awareness skills; introduce concepts of probability and adaptability. | | Estimated Playing Time | 30 minutes | | Expansion For | Railroad Ink | | Game Mechanics | Route/Network Building, Strategy | | Genre | Strategy | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00889696008923 | | Included Components | game | | Indoor Outdoor Usage | Indoor | | Item Dimensions | 6.1 x 5.9 x 1.7 inches | | Item Dimensions L x W | 28"L x 2"W | | Item Type Name | Railroad Ink: Deep Blue Edition | | Language | English | | Manufacturer | CMON | | Manufacturer Maximum Age (MONTHS) | 1500 | | Manufacturer Minimum Age (MONTHS) | 96 | | Manufacturer Part Number | RRI001 | | Material Type | Cardboard, Plastic | | Minimum Age Recomendation | 96 | | Model Number | RRI001 | | Number of Items | 1 | | Number of Players | 1 to 6 | | Operation Mode | Manual | | Rulebook Availability | Printed Included | | Set Name | Deep Blue | | Size | One Size | | Supported Battery Types | No batteries required | | Theme | Adventure | | UPC | 889696008923 | | Unit Count | 1 Count | ## Images ![Railroad Ink: Deep Blue - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81QfL4ym++L.jpg) ![Railroad Ink: Deep Blue - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71qHO4Bf01L.jpg) ![Railroad Ink: Deep Blue - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51D6OaK0OmL.jpg) ![Railroad Ink: Deep Blue - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81-ZZfnv3EL.jpg) ![Railroad Ink: Deep Blue - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51XQb1GgigL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: What is the difference between red and blue?** A: The base game and the 4 main white dice inside each box are the same with the exception of the color of the player boards. The difference is in the additional 4 expansion/variant dice. They have different colors, faces and rules when added to the base game. Rivers and lakes are in the blue version and lava and meteors are in the red one. **Q: How much does this game depend on luck vs strategy? Is this game similar to Ticket to Ride?** A: The game uses a dice mechanic to determine what track segments are available so there is quite a bit of luck involved. There a multiple ways to score your board but the game is about how to beat play what the dice have given you. My experience has been about 50-50 with people who like ticket to ride liking this game as well. The drawing aspect makes it feel quite different even with the similar theme. ## Frequently Bought Together - Horrible Guild Railroad Ink: Deep Blue Edition - Roll Dice and Draw Railways and Routes, 7 Rounds to Expand Your Rail Map - Expansion Dice Included Ages 8 & Up (Packaging may vary) - Horrible Guild Railroad Ink: Blazing Red Edition - Roll Dice and Draw Railways and Routes, 7 Rounds to Expand Your Rail Map - Expansion Dice Included, Plays with 1-6 players, 20-30 mins, Ages 8 & Up - Horrible Guild: Railroad Ink Challenge: Sky Blue Expansion, Expansions Can Be Added to Any Railroad Ink or Railroad Ink Challenge Base Game, For 1 to 6 Players, Ages 8 and Up --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/92647940-railroad-ink-deep-blue](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/92647940-railroad-ink-deep-blue) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-08-10*
