We shall never know whether the bold samurai was taking the cup
for himself or only to hand it to his venerable companion. It does not
matter: all warriors take offense and draw their katanas, joining the
fight at the call of "SAAKEEE!"
In Sake & Samurai you are a fierce and
thirsty samurai warrior, willing to do anything to get the last cup of
Sake. The winner is the most drunk samurai – in game terms, the player
who has collected the most Sake drink counters – at the end of the
Sudden Death round.
Be wary, though, for drinking too much will dull your wits and
mastery with the sword. Each drink of Sake prevents you from using one
of your resources, be it a weapon, an item, or even your personal skill!
You must always be wary not to drink too much or you risk becoming a
defenseless sot in the hands of your enemies. On the other hand, you
will be able to burn up some of the Sake you have drunk to obtain
significant bonuses which may well save your life. Show yourself as the
wise warrior you are and balance your strategy with care, not burning up
too much Sake, thus finding yourself in the rear at the end of the
game, when the Masu is empty and the Sudden death round begins. Those
who will succumb to their enemies' blows won't be eliminated from the
game, but will become Spirits of Enma, the thirsty god of death, and
team up with the other Spirits to attack the living, aiming to steal
their Sake. Raise your glasses (and your katanas)!
Sake & Samurai is a board game for 3-8 Players about honor, blood and Sake. It is both a standalone game and an expansion for Beer & Vikings..
