To plan their moves, they have complete overview over the game board, and the tickets they currently possess to move around. To move between stations, players must choose to use an appropriate transport mode ticket, thus consuming it. The most recent player moves are displayed in the action log, allowing for the Catchers to determine the movements of the Runners. If a player runs out of tickets to move, they may use their turn to get a new set of tickets. The game ends once all Runners are caught (Catchers win), or the turn limit is reached (Runners win).
