In the late 19th century, during the early Meiji era, Japan opened its first railway line between Shimbashi and Yokohama. This new mode of transportation sparked a railway boom across the country.

Local entrepreneurs, and later powerful tycoons, established new companies that grew into large railway corporations throughout the Taishō and Shōwa eras.

As players, you will take on the roles of these tycoons, building and managing your own railway empires as you compete for the most renown.

Railway Boom recreates this era of industry through gameplay by having players balance resource management with the growth of their railways connecting various cities across Japan.

Ellie I. ★★★★★

The Shimbashi–Yokohama route is the perfect hook to explain how this era’s rail mania took off, and the pre-order packaging kept the historical details crisp. I’ve already spent an afternoon tracing the line on the included map, and it makes the period feel alive.

Henry P. ★★★★★

I pre-ordered this and it arrived right as the Meiji era was described in the game—the historical detail on the Shimbashi to Yokohama line is fantastic. The cards have a nice weight and fit perfectly in the box.
