Stay tuned for a sneak peek video of Machi Koro next week.
From IDW Games:
IDW Games announced the publication ofMachi Koro, the first of many small box games to be released in partnership with Pandasaurus Games. This July, gamers can look forward to adding the international hit card game Machi Koro to their weekly game sessions.
This will be the first North American printing of the fast-paced, dice-rolling city builder, Machi Koro. In the game, players compete to be the first person to build up their simple village into a sprawling metropolis. Originally designed and released in Japan, Machi Koro has developed a dedicated fan-base around the world. Excited fans have been eagerly anticipating an English translation, and the game has already garnered a “seal of excellence” from The Dice Tower among many other accolades.
“This is absolutely one of the most addictive games I’ve ever played,” said Molly Wardlaw of Pandasaurus Games “Machi Koro is a table top gamer’s dream. Machi Koro is so infectiously fun because it combines strategy in a small fast-paced experience. This is a game that could easily be played with non-gamers, but has enough depth and strategy to satiate the most dedicated table top fanatics. This is the epitome of the ‘let’s play just one more round’ experience.”
Armed only with your trusty die and a dream, you must grow Machi Koro into the largest city in the region. You will need to collect income from developments and build public works, and steal from your neighbors coffers. Just make sure they aren’t doing the same to you! Machi Koro is a fast-paced light-hearted game for you and up to 3 friends. They say you can’t build Rome in a day, but Machi Koro will can be built in under 30 minutes!
“Machi Koro is a game that’s been whispered about in gaming halls for a long time,” said IDW Director of Business Development Jerry Bennington. “Any convention it’s been at, players have swarmed booths, snapping up copies, even if they had to translate rules and cards. We’re excited to be introducing ourselves at GAMA with a game and giveaway this prestigious.”
