So what's new in Machi Koro 2?
Machi Koro 2 has a totally new setup. In Machi Koro, you lay out cards in stacks by number, but Machi Koro 2 has 3 decks of cards - cards that activate on 1-6, cards that activate on 7-12, and Landmarks. To setup Machi Koro 2, you put out 5 unique cards from each deck, and those are the cards available to buy.
Machi Koro 2 also has a new starting mechanic. Instead of having the same starting hands like Machi Koro, in Machi Koro 2, there's 3 rounds of buying where players can buy any available cards they want.
The gameplay and dice rolling all happens the same way as Machi Koro - Roll the dice and activate the cards with the same number.
But Machi Koro 2 also has a new way to win! Instead of a standard set of landmarks, there's an entire deck of landmarks that have a variety of benefits - some affect only the builder, and some affect everybody. And you win Machi Koro 2 by being the first person to build 3 landmarks.
So, as a family who loves Machi Koro, what do we think of Machi Koro 2? We love it! Machi Koro 2 is an amazing next step from a game that we love. The designers did a great job of taking the great aspects of Machi Koro and building on them, while addressing some of the common criticisms of the game.
From the Publisher:
Your favorite lovably quirky city is back at it again! Welcome to Machi Koro 2, where new adventures await, but the bakeries and business centers still abound.
In Machi Koro 2, veteran players will notice some big changes. Under the new zoning laws, players receive a limited budget to choose their own starting establishments. The available cards are pulled from three decks and arranged for all to see. It's a race to grab the coolest new establishments and landmarks in the land!
The cards in this set have exciting, never-before-seen effects. But choose what you build wisely, as your landmarks might also benefit your opponents! With more variety than ever before, no two games will be the same. Machi Koro 2 will have fans visiting again and again!
