Description
Shikoku is a racing game where players take on the role of pilgrims climbing 33 steps to reach a pagoda. The goal is not to be the first or last, but rather to be second or next to last when a player reaches the top. This unique twist adds a fun and strategic layer to the game. With easy-to-learn rules, 3 to 8 players can join in on the fun, and games typically last between 30 to 40 minutes. As players climb the steps, they must manage their hand of cards and carefully time their moves to avoid being too far ahead or behind. The game is designed by Eloi Pujadas and features mechanics like action queue, hand management, and card drafting, making it an engaging experience for all players. Published in 2018, Shikoku offers a fresh take on the racing genre, and its short playtime makes it perfect for a quick game night with friends.
