Designed by Glenn Drover and Martin Wallace, it offers both a full game experience and compatibility as a map-and-cards expansion, with no assembly or batteries needed. ## 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) Review: I bought this version after a buddy introduced me to the original railways of the world. This is a FANTASTIC game no matter what map you're playing on. Since I never play at high player counts like 5-6 (I rarely even play at 4) I don't need all the extra stuff from the base game. This standalone box seats 4 and the map is tight and can get very aggressive. Overall If you like train games, and/or you're thinking about getting in to this particular series. I would NOT recommend the base game or its 10th anniversary edition. Start with Nippon. Its got everything you want, but will take up less than HALF (Literally) of the space on your game shelf.
