Description

In Shokudo, a card game designed by Hellis "Mikael" Leiva, 2 to 5 players take on the roles of brothers vying to inherit their father's Japanese restaurant. The game is simple to learn, with easy-to-explain rules that get you started quickly, and plays out over about 30 minutes. Each player starts with a unique hand and level of honor, and must strategically distribute their turn's actions to serve as many orders as possible and earn the honor points indicated on the cards. As players navigate the game, they'll need to balance serving customers with managing their hand of cards, using hand management and card drafting mechanics to their advantage. The goal is to be the first player to reach 10 honor points, but beware - if an order goes unfulfilled, the customer will become angry and all players will lose honor. With its quick playtime and simple rules, Shokudo is a great introduction to card drafting games, and its unique theme and mechanics make it a fun and engaging experience for players of all skill levels. Published in 2012, Shokudo offers a fun and challenging experience for 2 to 5 players, making it a great addition to any game night.
