📖 About This Game

A new version of the popular TransAmerica game by Franz Benno-Delonge. This version, published in Japan, features the original US map on one side and a new Japan map on the reverse with its own set of cards. The game includes the same scoring variant that was introduced in the 2018 Ravensburger release of Trans Europa & Trans Amerika. This game also includes variant cards that alter each round. These cards are similar to, but not the same as, the cards that were introduced in the Ravensburger release. While the rules for the game do not include the rules for the "Vexation" expansion, the game's components include three track shaped wooden pieces in each of the possible player colors. The rules indicate that these pieces are used in selecting which variant cards to introduce each round. —user summary
