Nippon: Keiretsu

About this expansion

Nippon: Keiretsu is a mini expansion for 2–4 players, designed for play sessions of approximately 120 minutes. Released in 2018, it adds twelve new factories to the industrial world of Nippon.

These new factories offer a fresh gameplay experience within the base game. By increasing the number of available factories, the expansion gives players more choices when deciding where to invest as they pursue influence across the Japanese islands.

The additional options create room for new strategies. Each game can offer different opportunities to consider, encouraging players to reassess their investment decisions and adapt their approach during the Industrial Revolution.

Nippon: Keiretsu focuses on expanding the strategic possibilities already present in Nippon. Its twelve factories are designed to provide more variety without changing the expansion’s central theme: building influence throughout Japan during a period of rapid industrial development.

For groups looking to explore new investment possibilities, this mini expansion adds meaningful variety to the Nippon experience. It is a concise addition with a clear purpose: offer more factory choices and support fresh strategic paths for 2–4 players.
