Players have to move their train piece, turn the spinner and travel to different MTR station for mission. They will encounter different challenges, interact with other players and learn the good behaviour for taking MTR safety. The board game also apply the reading pen as the player use it to point out station, card or graphic, the reading pen will voice out the MTR original sound as like to stay in train.
