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 during as the game progresses. Finally, the player with the most points at the end of the game is the winner!

First play with 2 persons. Great game: - easy to learn; - deep choices; - very interactive! This game plays fast and I’m looking forward for higher player counts.

This was a hype driven acquisition/preorder. Looks like a good game in a small package and at a reasonable price. I don´t have any other action programing game, and the combination of area control (which I like) can result in a very intersing game. Will pimp the components up (wooden disks) if it´s worth it. Got Rid of it

Jeu de programmation et de majorité de zones dans le japon feodal. Les jetons d'ordre sont joués à tour de rôle pour ensuite les révéler du sud au nord. Faire un autre round où l'on peut jouer sur nos jetons ou cacher ceux des adversaires et résoudre du nord au sud. - Expansion : Rise of Tokugawa : 5e joueur, pouvoir asymétrique, meeple archer, daimyo et mode solo.
