About the game
What you do in a play session
Machi Koro: The Harbor & Millionaire's Row are two expansions bundled in a single box, ready to plug into the latest 5th Anniversary Edition of the classic. The core premise of the base game – building your own Japanese city by rolling dice and buying establishments – stays the same, but the expansions introduce new districts, victory‑point cards, and rules that give you even more strategic options. The Harbor adds waterfront establishments such as ships and maritime markets that grant bonuses on specific dice rolls. Millionaire's Row lets players purchase high‑value properties that score victory points at game end, plus event cards that shuffle the flow of resources. Both expansions keep the dice‑rolling and open‑draft mechanics, but broaden the decision space, making each game feel fresh. The box includes all needed components: new cards, victory‑point tokens, harbor markers, and a rule sheet that seamlessly integrates everything with the base game. For fans of Machi Koro, these additions provide a solid upgrade without raising the already low learning curve. The game still supports 2‑5 players and runs about 30 minutes, preserving the quick, casual pace that makes it a favorite at get‑togethers.
