Tokaido (new edition)

In Tokaido you are a traveler in ancient Japan. You will follow the prestigious Tokaidoa road between Kyoto and Edo (Tokyo)as you try to have a rich and fulfilling experience. Pass through magnificent countryside taste delicious culinary specialties purchase souvenirs benefit from the virtues of hot springs and have unforgettable encounters on your journey.

Tokaido features a time-track mechanism in which the active player is the person who is furthest behind on the path. When you are the active player you can move your character as far forward as you’d like (with required stops at Inns) gaining different types of set-collection benefits at each unique location.

Components

2 rulebooks (multiplayer and solo)
1 box (295x295x50mm)
1 game board (280x840mm)
15 player tokens (3 per player)
50 coins (cardboard)
10 Traveler tiles
142 cards (44x68mm)
5 reference cards (65x100mm)
23 solo cards (44x68mm)

In total there are 165 cards at the 44x68mm size and 5 cards at the 65x100mm size. The solo mode is included in the game but if you already own Tokaido we’ll offer it by itself as well (the updated panorama cards are also in that pack). You can also listen to the Tokaido soundtrack while you play.

What’s Different?

The Stonemaier Games version of Tokaido is completely compatible with existing expansions and it features these updates:

- Includes an Automa solo mode expanding the player count to 1-5 players. The solo mode will be available both in our version of the game and separately (for those who already own Tokaido).

- Is manufactured by Panda using our standards for component quality (e.g. the panorama cards will be upgraded to the same 310gsm cardstock we use for all our cards). For any components that need to integrate with existing Tokaido expansions we’re matching the composition for full compatibility.

- Includes a revised rulebook for clarity and accessibility (the gameplay is the same).

- Includes text on some cards and the character tiles to accompany the icons (so you don’t need to reference the rulebook to decipher combinations of icons).

- Includes reference cards for each player that explain the locations.
