Description
Mottainai is a game where every little thing counts, and waste is not an option. As an acolyte in a temple, you'll use your cards in multiple ways to perform tasks, collect materials, and create works for visitors. Each card has three potential uses, making for a game that's both quick and deep. With 15 to 30 minutes of playtime, you can dive into the world of Mottainai with 2 to 5 friends and family members. Clever planning and strategic thinking are key to success in Mottainai. You'll need to choose tasks wisely, considering how other players can follow up on your actions on their next turn. Managing your materials and combining special abilities will also help you come out on top. Designed by Carl Chudyk and first published in 2015, Mottainai offers a unique and engaging gaming experience that's sure to keep you coming back for more.
