Railways of Nippon is a self-contained 2-4 player version of Railways of
the World with a new map of Japan designed by the Japanese game
designer Hisashi Hayashi. The game takes place during Japan's rapid
industrial growth during the Meiji era, where you take the role of one
of the entrepreneurial railroad baron of that time.
You plan and lay
track, upgrade your trains, sell goods to distant cities, and use
operation cards to become the richest railroad baron of Japan! Balance
your budget wisely, since taking too many bank bonds can ruin your
business over the course of the game. Also, watch the competition
closely because you can only use the track that you laid down personally
to trade.
Since the island of Japan is mountainous and narrow there is
often not enough space for everyone to lay their track where they want.
Foreseeing your competitors moves and well thought out moves will ensure
you an undisputed railroad empire!
