【Cautions for using electrical products】
When using electrical appliances, please note that the voltage is different from that of Japan, which may cause malfunctions.
Since the plug type is Japan type(A or B type), please check the voltage and use a transformer.
Please note that a transformer is different from a conversion adapter.
We are not responsible for malfunctions caused by use without a transformer.
【Voltage Compatibility】
When using electrical appliances, please note that they are designed for Japanese voltage specifications (90-110V), so if you use them with a different voltage, it may cause a malfunction.
【Plug Type】
Our products use Japanese plug types (A or B type).
Please use a conversion adapter if necessary.
【Important Note on Transformers and Adapters】
A transformer adjusts voltage to match your device’s requirements.
A conversion adapter only changes the plug shape and does not adjust voltage.
Using only a conversion adapter without a transformer may result in damage to the product.
【Liability】
We are not responsible for malfunctions or damages caused by improper use, such as operating the product without a transformer.

Japan's first realistic railway board game based on the complete Shinkansen route map! *According to our research (as of November 25, 2023). Sugotetsu 25 [Shinkansen Edition] is a Sugoroku-like game where you travel freely across all of Japan's Shinkansen routes, and victory or defeat is determined by 25-square "Kanji Bingo" puzzles.
[Rules] In addition to the "must rules" that must be implemented in this game, there are also "optional rules" that players can decide whether or not to implement. The "optional rules" include (1) the "fastest train rule" (commonly known as the "Nozomi rule"), (2) the "airplane warp rule", and (3) the "double attack rule". The more "optional rules" you implement, the more complicated the rules become, but the more fun the game becomes. For more details, please see the product's official website.
The price differs between the two-player version and the two-to-four-player version. The only difference between the two is the number of bingo pieces, the number of pieces, and the number of chips. The game content, route map, and rules are the same.
[Included items] Chips: 20 pieces x 2 players = 40 pieces, Bingo: 2 pieces, Pieces: 2 pieces
This product is the second in the "Sugotetsu 25" series of realistic railway map board games. The popular "Tokyo Metro Edition" is also still on sale!
This is the second installment of the realistic board game "Sugotetsu 25," which is based on real railway lines and station names! The setting is an actual Shinkansen route map, and by rolling the dice, you travel all over Japan as if you were on a Shinkansen.
The affected lines are all Shinkansen lines, including the Tokaido-Sanyo Shinkansen, Kyushu Shinkansen (including the Nishi-Kyushu Shinkansen), Tohoku-Hokkaido Shinkansen (including the Akita Shinkansen and Yamagata Shinkansen), Joetsu Shinkansen, and Hokuriku Shinkansen.
You start by choosing one of the stations that start on each line. Roll the dice to move your piece. Unlike previous Sugoroku games, Sugotetsu 25 does not have a goal, and you travel freely across Japan on the Shinkansen. You are free to change trains at transfer stations. Winners are determined by completing a bingo row, either vertically, horizontally, or diagonally, using the "Kanji Bingo" provided in the appendix.
To beat your opponent, you need to be able to "read one step ahead" and think about which line to take, how to take it, and when and how to transfer at the many transfer stations. The rules are simple, similar to Sugoroku, where you roll the dice to move your piece, but if you really want to beat your opponent, you need to turn it into a battle of wits, "reading ahead." In that sense, Sugotetsu 25 can be called a "strategic game for the brain." It can be enjoyed not only by children and adults, but also by adults alone.
