USPS: The Great American Mail Race

About this board game

USPS: The Great American Mail Race is a lightly strategic, family-friendly board game for 2-4 players, with games lasting about 45 minutes. Take on the role of a United States Postal Service mail carrier and compete to deliver as much mail as possible across America.

Plan your route with Transport Cards featuring 13 official USPS methods of transportation. Your options range from the pony express and 4×4 to hot-air balloon and rocket, creating a playful mix of familiar and surprising ways to move mail.

Your rival carriers are working toward the same goal, and they may even “assist” by taking your mail. Choose your routes carefully, deliver efficiently, and look for opportunities to build your score across four U.S. regions.

• Deliver mail to memorable towns such as Jackpot, Booger Hole, and Whynot.
• Earn bonus points for collecting Postcards and making same-day deliveries.
• Score additional bonuses for hometown pickups and delivering fragile parcels without air transport.
• Use the included iconic USPS mailbox stamper to mark your Delivery Slip.

The game combines accessible route planning with nostalgic USPS-themed details, making it approachable for families while still offering meaningful choices. Every delivery can contribute to your final score, but the right bonuses may help separate the winning carrier from the rest.

When the deck of Transport Cards runs out, the mail race ends. Add up your points from deliveries, regions, and bonuses to determine who proved they were the best mail carrier in town.
