The additions promote diverse strategies, encourage tactical decisions on construction order, and support 2–5 player games.

How to use

Integrate the expansion cards into the base Machi Koro 5th Anniversary setup following the module instructions included in the pack. Choose which expansion modules to enable at the start of the session to set desired complexity; shuffle and place the new building and landmark cards with the base decks as directed. During play, use the expanded card pool to make construction purchases and resolve dice rolls as in the core game; the new cards provide additional effects that are applied when their conditions are met.

Usage recommendations

For a gradual increase in complexity, add one expansion module at a time and play several sessions to learn new card interactions before combining both modules. Ensure all players are familiar with the specific effects of new buildings and landmarks to keep turns moving smoothly.
