**PREORDER**

Nippon: Zaibatsu is a reimagined and updated 10th Anniversary edition of Nippon - a fast-paced area majority economic game about massive congolmerates of interconnected companies driving Japan's economy in the Industrial Revolution era.

During the game, players invest in new industries, build factories and railroads, and produce goods to saturate local markets and fulfill contracts — all to grow their influence and power and to become rulers of the new modernized country. Players are free to choose their playstyle and winning strategy: They choose what they score victory points for, control the game's pace with income turns, and race each other to get the most beneficial factories, markets, and bonuses.

All the core mechanisms of the original Nippon are present, but the components, art, and design are upgraded, and many gameplay features are reworked to get the game in line with modern trends. Nippon: Zaibatsu features new resource types, ships are heavily revised with new Iwakura mission rules, factories are much more variable, consolidation turns provide players with new rewards, and much more. Also, the game now has an automa-driven solo mode.


Emperor's Edition is the Kickstarter version of the game. It introduces deluxe components, such as printed wooden tokens and a modular organiser, and additional gameplay content like extra factories and the Common Goals module with additional rewards for achievements.

• Twice as many factories - Thirty factory tiles become double sided, opening many new strategies and ensuring variability and replayability.
• Heat Printe Wooden Pieces - Beautiful resources and tokens improve the immersion and are pleasant to touch andplay with.
• Modular Organiser - Multipart plastic organiser with lids for convenient storage and quick and easy setup.
