Welcome to the online version of the Railroad Rush Hour game. This is based on a game designed by Binary Arts. If you like the game, consider buying the hard copy. It'll entertain your guests a lot better than that coffee table book of 1001 Pennsylvania Dutch barn hexes.
The square cars can move in any direction. The rectangular cars can only move along their long axis.
To move a car, click on it and drag with the mouse. Due to the advanced "power assisted" technology, the car will move faster than your mouse pointer. This is normal, do not panic.
Every time you move a car it counts as one move, regardless of how far it went. If you move a car and then move it again, it will only count as one move. If you move it and then put it back where it started, it won't count as any moves. You can also take back your moves with the Backspace key.
To choose a new puzzle, you can either click on it in the list boxes at the bottom or press Next Puzzle. If you have selected "Choose the next puzzle in the sequence", then Next Puzzle will do just that. If you have selected "Choose randomly from the current skill level", then Next Puzzle will choose a random puzzle that is the same skill level as the current one.
Use the Next Move and Undo Move buttons to walk through the solution. When you are done wimping out, press Stop Cheating.
