Senshi
15m - 20m
2 - 4 Players
Ages 14+
You are a senshi, a warrior-monk studying diligently at the temple under the tutelage of the current master. You and your fellow students train vigorously every day to improve your mind and body, but your master is ailing, and only one senshi will become the next master. To prove your worth, you must develop four attributes: strength, agility, wisdom, and honor. A true master must be strong in all of these, and weak in none.
Senshi is a strategy game for 2-4 players that takes only 15 minutes to play! Carefully manipulate stacks of tiles that represent your four attributes: strength, agility, wisdom, and honor. Competing in a battle of wits, players will choose one of three actions each turn: study to take stacks of tiles, train to take a single tile off any stack, and test to score tiles when the time is optimal.
Whoever has the tallest scoring pile of any of the four attributes at the end of the game wins; however, first the player with the shortest scoring pile is eliminated. Watch your opponent’s moves closely and exploit their weaknesses to achieve the great honor of becoming the temple’s next master!

Pretty abstract with a neat scoring scheme that encourages triggering scoring. I don't see much of long term excitement with this though.

A small abstract game. The strategy is a little interesting, but not deep. And the theme is rather pasted on, but works abstractly. The chips look cheap.

This is a cool, simple game. I've thought about how to win, but I can't figure it out, I even surprise myself when I win and sometimes people who shouldn't win, end up winning, so I don't know, but it's fun to play.
