Buy properties to increase assets!

Stop exactly at your goal to be the first arrival!

The most attractive feature of MomoTetsu is the arrival grant. If you arrive at your goal station before anyone else, you can get a large amount of money! ...But that's not all! If you reach your destination first consecutively, you will receive a bonus prize, and if you do so two or three times in a row, your bonus will continue to grow! In addition, if your balance is negative, it will be reset to 0, and sometimes you can even receive powerful cards!
