Senji Rules Now Available
Asmodée Editions has posted the English rules for Senji (PDF), which is due out Q3 2008, on its website.
Christophe Arnoult at Asmodée notes in passing that many of the company’s recent and upcoming games involve Asian themes and settings, from Ca$h’n Gun$: Yakuzas last month to Senji and Okko l’ère d’Asagiri in the summer to Repos Production’s Ghost Stories, which Asmodée is distributing in North America around the end of the year. Last fall saw two games themed around the Great Wall of China, and Z-Man Games is releasing both Genji and Wasabi! in the coming months. Any predictions for the next trendy location in Eurogaming?

The rules are a little cavalier, although the example of play helps. They are physically very nice. There’s no mistaking the Game of Thrones influences, but there’s still many fresh ideas. The notions of “collateral” to back up agreements and having your cards “in circulation” are pretty cool. Someone in my game group will pick this up for sure.

The rules how the dice as black&white with symbols. It would be a huge mistake not to color the sides by player color. Posted by Jim Cote on Apr 18, 2008 at 01:31 PM | #
