Abstract Strategy Game ‘Senshi’ Coming from Arcane Wonders This May

Feb 21, 2018

Arcane Wonders has revealed a new abstract strategy game with an Asian theme which is on the horizon. In Senshi, two to four players will each represent an apprentice warrior-monk in training who aims to be the most fit to replace their current master. The game is for ages 14+ and plays in about fifteen minutes. Senshi will be hitting stores in May but there isn’t any MSRP info as of yet.

From Arcane Wonders:

You are a Senshi, a warrior-monk studying diligently at the temple under the tutelage of the current master. You and your fellow students train vigorously every day to improve your mind and body, but your master is ailing, and only one Senshi will become the next master. To prove your worth, you must develop four attributes: Strength, Agility, Wisdom, and Honor. A true master must be strong in all of these, and weak in none.

Senshi is a strategy game for 2-4 players that takes only 15 minutes to play! Carefully manipulate stacks of tiles that represent your four attributes: Strength, Agility, Wisdom, and Honor. Competing in a battle of wits, players will choose one of three actions each turn: STUDY to take stacks of tiles, TRAIN to take a single tile off any stack, and strategically calling a TEST to score tiles when the time is optimal.

The victor will be the player who has the tallest scoring pile of any of the four attributes at the end of the game; however, the player with the shortest scoring pile is eliminated. Watch your opponent’s moves closely and exploit their weaknesses to achieve the great honor of becoming the temple’s next master!
