About this game

This game shows the first year of the Russo-Japanese War. In the first panel, Japanese Foreign Minister Jutaro Komura meets Russian Minister to Japan, Roman Rosen on Feb. 6, 1904. Two days later, the Japanese fleet launched a pre-emptive strike in three locations: Port Arthur, Vladivostok and Chemulpo Bay (second panel). The central end space shows news of the surrender of Port Arthur, which only happened on the day of publication.
