YOKOHAMA - It is the start of the Meiji era. Japan has reestablished trade relations with the West, and the sleepy fishing village of Yokohama has become the country’s premier trading hub. Goods such as copper and raw silk flow out of Yokohama, while foreign technology and culture trickles in. Modernization is beginning to take hold in Japan, with Yokohama’s merchants as the forefront. In Yokohama, players act as merchants, vying to gain fame through successful business ventures that include collecting trade goods, learning new technologies, and developing the city’s shops and trading houses. To find new business, players will need to roam Yokohama’s streets in search of opportunities. In Yokohama, players strategically dispatch assistants, navigate the city, and take actions to gain fame as merchants. Each round consists of Additional and Main Actions, including placement, movement, area actions, and construction. Fulfilling achievements and order cards brings advantages. The game ends when players build all their Trading Houses/Shophouses, exhaust order cards, or meet specific assistant conditions. The player with the most fame wins. Designed for 2 to 4 players, Yokohama is versatile and suitable for different group sizes.
