About this game
Dominion meets railways as deck building drives network construction across a shared board. Buy cards to improve your deck, then use them to lay track and build stations in Japanese cities. The board adds a spatial dimension that pure deck builders lack: occupying the same city as opponents costs extra, and station placement creates area-majority scoring. Waste cards from building force you to manage deck bloat, adding a layer of efficiency pressure.
