About this game

Sudokan is a flip and draw thinky filler game, with a unique twist fighting mechanism. The players are Daimyos who are summoned by the Emperor to protect the kingdom from the barbarians. They must use the Sudokan, a forgotten art of encrypted military strategies and send it to the Emperor to be evaluated. Players must draw monks, clans and Toriis to create the best strategy. Every round will have battles and they need to choose carefully which regions they want to fight to win. Because you can´t win it all. Besides that, the Daimyos must pay attention to the Emperor impositions which along with battles, also give victory points. In the end of the game, the player with the most victory points wins. —description from the designer
