Shinkansen: Zero-Kei
Players act as engineers building the Tōkaidō Shinkansen and its stations in the run-up to the 1964 Tokyo Olympics. Each round players construct a personal bullet train by adding carriage cards; each carriage grants an action or ability used to lay track, build stations, assist Olympic venue preparations, or draw more carriages. Carriage cards are tied to cities along the line, and building them in the correct sequence earns victory points. The game lasts five rounds, and the player with the most victory points at the end wins.

Javo8.0 Juego de llamadice fácil de jugar aunque difícil de explicar. Al principio puedes ir un poco perdido en que es lo que tienes que hacer. Es interesante la interacción entre jugadores ya usando la loseta de locomotora de otro jugador como la "cooperación" que se produce cuando compartís estaciones. El modo solo es muy fácil de llevar y se juega rápido. Buenas sensaciones aunque disfrute más el solitario de TRC y WC.
