Nippon Rails

Nippon Rails

Construct a railroad network across Japan and profit by hauling commodities from farms, mines, and factories to places of demand. Use delivery income to purchase larger, faster trains and expand the network. Rival tracks, mountains, rivers, channels, and a restrictive coastline limit available routes and create opportunities for blockages. A tunnel links Honshu with Hokkaido. The game supports 2–3 players, with a variant for up to six.
