Namiji: Tokaido Universe Strategy Board Game for 2-5 Players Ages 8+

In Namiji, you are fishers from the Japan of yesteryear, navigating south of the Japanese archipelago, a few kilometers from the famous Tokaido road. To win the game, you will need to have a fruitful day at sea.

This is a strategy board game where players move around the game board, choosing spaces that allow them to take actions like fishing, catching crustaceans, and viewing the vistas of the sea. You can benefit from stops to improve your fishing equipment, and you will also have to contend with the gods of the sea by setting offerings afloat or by fulfilling their wishes that they express during your contemplation with the Sacred Rocks, for which they will reward you.

The game features variable gameplay mechanics. Catching fish creates a set collection puzzle where players score their fishing basket if whole rows or columns share fish of the same color or shape. Crustaceans are drawn from a bag, adding a push-your-luck element. Complete sets of panoramas and use sacred rocks for secret objectives to earn extra points.

Namiji is the spiritual sequel to the best-selling and award-winning Tokaido, but it is a standalone game with its own set of unique rules and gameplay mechanics. Take to the sea and discover the hidden marvels of the Japanese coast.

This exciting strategy board game is designed for 2 to 5 players and is suitable for ages 8 and older. The average playtime is approximately 45 minutes.
