Kamen Rider: Original Board Game is a vintage Japanese children s board game released in 1973 by Popy, based on the early Showa-era Kamen Rider television series. The game features the first generations of Riders and villains, presented in the colorful, pop-art style typical of Popy toys of the 1970s. The gameplay follows a classic sugoroku-style roll-and-move format, where players advance their Rider along the track, encounter monsters, trigger battle spaces, and race toward the final showdown. Events on the board correspond to episodes and characters from the early Kamen Rider TV series. As with many Popy tie-in games from the period, the rules are simple and accessible to children, focusing on movement, battles determined by dice, and reaching the goal space first. The game includes a board, Rider standees, cards or tokens, and a spinner or dice depending on the edition. This title is part of the long tradition of Showa-era tokusatsu board games and is a collectible item among Kamen Rider and vintage Popy enthusiasts.
