Description

Railways of Nippon is a 2 to 4 player version of Railways of the World that includes a new map of Japan designed by the superstar Japanese game designer Hisashi Hayashi. Improvements include:

  • A lower MSRP due to the reduction in size to 2-4 players
  • A much smaller and much sturdier box, sized for easier storage
  • New player colors that do not overlap the supply and demand colors of the cubes and the cities
  • A new ECM -- the "timer" of the Railways of the World series of games
  • Water drops on the maps to indicate water hexes and avoid confusion
  • Four scoring track disks (in player colors)
