Dec 11, 2020

An interesting looking feudal Japan themed strategy game is arriving from Archona Games. In Small Samurai Empires, designed by Milan Tasevski, players will lead their armies through action programming as they aim to conquer valuable regions to be named Shogun. The game is for two to four players, ages 13+, plays in 45 to 90 minutes, and will carry an MSRP of $39.00 when it arrives on December 22nd.

From Archona Games:

Small Samurai Empires is an action-programming area-control game for 2-4 players, where players are fighting for control of Japan with their armies of Samurai!

A game of Small Samurai Empires is played in 3 Eras, each consisting of 2 rounds. Each round, players will take turns placing order tokens facedown on one of the slots available in the 4 regions of Japan. When all players have placed their tokens and filled all the token slots, they will be revealed and resolved one by one by the owner of the token. These order tokens will enable the players to recruit mighty Samurai armies, move their armies to conquer provinces, build castles to defend and maintain control of their provinces and do other meaningful actions.

At the end of each of the three Eras, players will score points depending on the regions they control and their value, which can change as the game progresses. Finally, the player with the most points at the end of the game is the winner!
