NEXT STATION - Tokyo

We love Next Station London, and we're prepared for a lesser experience with this one because of the lower Geekrating, but honestly - this version is very good too! It is more difficult, and it makes the game feel different in a good way. It forces you to play the game differently - much more than Ticket to arise base vs TtR Europe. I'd recommend this as a denser twist.

Next Station Tokyo est un jeu familial avec des règles globalement simples à comprendre et une super mécanique. Un thème et des designs juste géniaux. Avis d’élèves du collège Albert Triboulet: Maya en 3ème: « J’aime bien le principe. Je trouve les dessins juste magnifiques. Seul bémol j’ai eu un peu de mal à comprendre les règles mais au bout d’un peu de temps j’y suis parvenu. » Stéphane 5ème: « J’ai bien aimé le jeu. J’ai trouvé les règles un peu dures. Les dessins sont trop stylés et la boite est incroyable et a l’air pas mal résistante. » https://undecent.fr/2026/09/25/test-next-station-tokyo/

Good : Adds mission A great addition to the cards is the new feature where a station has a unique bonus Bad : Complicates scoring (both - Dani an Claudiu) Still not fun, has a feeling of puzzeling no wild events on the paper (Dani)

I love Next Station: London, and this is maybe even better! This simplifies the area and max stations scoring, combining them into one multiplication, which is great. i like the circular Yamanote-line and its ability to score you more junctions but also causing negative points when not connected. It's more interesting than the river in London. Scoring additionally for junctions in outer areas is a great touch, and the parallel lines works really well too. The map may be slightly tighter than London, but not much. Just a really fun relaxing affair.

I like already predecessor Next Station: London and this is a more complicated version, so what is not to like :-). But probably a tad too heavy now for family players?
