Read the full game description

There are many types of people who arrive at a bus stop waiting to get on a bus; babies,kids, high school girls, working men, seniors and ETs(the Extra-Terrestrials). In this game it is your job to get the same type of people on to one of your buses, and to make sure your bus is full before taking them to their destinations. If you have more kinds of people than you have buses you will have to make some of them wait at the bus stop for another bus to come. If the game ends and you still have passengers waiting for a bus, you create unhappy customers and you receive negative Victory Points. This is the new version of card game Busstop. Cards changed into tiles, main board and player boards. A new kind of passenger called baby introduced. And several rules are changed.
