Namiji: Tokaido Strategy Board Game for 2-5 Players

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 standalone strategy board game with its own unique set of rules and gameplay mechanics, serving as the spiritual sequel to the best-selling and award-winning Tokaido. Players will 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.

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.

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.

In Namiji, you will have the opportunity to contemplate magnificent marine species, to fish with a line or a net to fill your racks with colorful fish, and haul in your crustacean traps. This game offers a new journey after Tokaido, allowing you to immerse yourself in the spiritual atmosphere of the Japanese coastal regions.

Namiji is the spiritual sequel to the best-selling and award-winning Tokaido, providing players with a standalone experience that combines strategic gameplay, set collection, and push-your-luck mechanics. Embark on this new adventure and test your skills as a fisher, navigating the waters and interacting with the gods of the sea to achieve victory.
