Power Grid: Russia & Japan

2010 · Expansion for Base-game

Power Grid: Russia & Japan

Two new mapboards present distinct regional challenges for the base economic-network game. The Russia side limits the power-plant market and alters the usual rules for exchanging outdated plants, forcing players to adapt bidding and upgrade strategies. The Japan side models dense geography by allowing players to build two separate networks and imposing initial connection restrictions to select cities, intensifying competition for key routes and expansion opportunities.
