Description

In Shitenno, you'll take on the role of one of the four great Generals of legendary Shogun Togukawa Ieyasu, competing to become the favorite by controlling as many provinces as possible. The game is all about planning and manipulation in the Shogun's court, rather than battling it out on the battlefield. With a playtime of 60 minutes, you'll have plenty of time to scheme and strategize with your fellow players, whether you're playing with two, three, or four of you. The game's mechanics, including area majority and set collection, make for a thrilling experience as you try to outmaneuver your opponents and gain control of provinces. The rules are easy to learn, but winning requires a keen sense of your opponents' intentions and a clever approach to the distribution phase, where you'll create card lots and make crucial choices that can make or break your chances of success.
