From 1895 to 1945, Taiwan was colonized by Japan. In that time, Japan heavily invested in modernizing Taiwan’s railway system around the island, with bold plans including building tunnels and tracks through mountains. In the Taiwan map for Mini Express, the white company represents Japan. Players are seeking to expand tracks across the island, especially to the 6 major cities; however, mountains pose a logistical problem. Players can at any time invest in Japanese modernization, and it indeed comes with benefits. However, the more players do business with Japan, the tighter the restrictions are in the game. Soon, you might find your influence in a company reduced to nothing if you’re not careful. Fulfill your dreams of steel and steam!
