Description

In TOKYO METRO, you'll take on the role of a private investor aiming to build a network of stations across Tokyo and speculate on train lines. The game is built around worker placement, giving you three main options: building new stations in prime locations to earn income from passing trains, investing in train lines by buying stock or speculating on lines you don't own, and expanding your available actions by acquiring more discs, cards, or tokens. With its unique blend of route planning, investing, and area control, TOKYO METRO brings a fresh economic twist to the world of train games. As you navigate the Tokyo metro map, you'll need to balance your investments, speculate wisely, and outmaneuver your opponents to come out on top. With its engaging gameplay and realistic replication of the Tokyo area, TOKYO METRO is a must-play for fans of economic and transportation games.
