I found 2 major bugs.
- I didn`t receive 5th space bonus (3 fish)
- An order provide different profits than it should.

Both reported.
This game is unplayable right now.

Had to abandon the turn-based game we were playing that had switched to the new graphics mid-game as the new version was so bad. The Power 5 bonus TWICE gave me 1x Import when it had been showing 3x Fish, so that is just a complete error. The colours and layout is awful compared to the previous version and the distinction between the President and Assistants is impossible to discern without big magnification. Quite simply, this new version is now unplayable and I for one will never be playing it again while it is so poor.

Adding to this growing chorus.

Everything is hard to read - the number of points, the bonus tokens for power 5 actions (and these things can't be hovered for more details). The technology cards are so poorly visualized as well. The game is borderline unplayable.

I see the assistants have been fixed back to a cube, which is good, but the number shown on top of them is still unreadable.

Also, a British order had different requirements and rewards from what was graphically shown

Please put back a way to use the old graphics. I love Yokohama but it's virtually unplayable for me now. The graphics are unclear and the font is tiny.

Although I welcome the new style as it matches my physical copy, the image quality of components is low res. Eg can’t read text on tech cards. The VP numbers on orders are burred guesswork between 3s, 6s and 8s.

If hi res image files of all components were used that would be a big improvement.

Playing on an iPad and zoom is zero help as it just magnifies the fuzziness.

EDIT - for an example of a game with hi-res images and cards with text that are readable please can the designers look at The Lost Ruins of Arnak. This is also a game with a big setup but it’s possible to zoom right in and lose very little detail.

I also think the game is almost unplayable with the new graphics. Please at least make the old graphics an option.

The new one is awful.
Yes, I totally agree with you. It's not just the graphic design — the colors are also too light and strain my eyes, making it hard to see the icons clearly.
