How To Play?:

The game board is modeled after the island of Shikoku, Japan. It is divided into 8 areas (Mountains, Waterfalls, Bamboos, Moons) by Trade routes (orange lines). The inner island contains 4 Mountain towns, while the outskirts are spotted with a myriad of stations: Temples, Gardens, Seashores, Coastal towns, and Hot springs.

Each player controls three characters, whom they will usher throughout Shikoku: A Pilgrim who travels around the island, a Merchant who follows the inner Trade routes, and an Artist who moves from one area to the next, off the beaten paths.

The player who manages to make the most of their combined activities wins the game.
