Insect Shogi

2023

Published by Tomy Company, Ltd. (Takara Tomy)

Description

The board is a simple board of 4 x 5 squares! Just like in normal shogi, you can win by capturing the opponent's [King], and we also use the [Try Rule], which allows you to win when your [King] reaches the opponent's base (sap zone). Each insect (piece) has different abilities! Some insects can evolve and transform if certain conditions are met. (The grasshopper evolves by eating grass on the board, the praying mantis evolves by capturing an opponent, and the turtle transforms into the opponent it captured) The back side has 3x4 squares, allowing you to enjoy even simpler games.
