Description
SHOBU is a beautifully crafted abstract strategy game for 2 players. The game features 4 square wood boards (2 of each color) and 16 natural river stones for each player, in two colors, with a rope dividing the play area in half.
Your turn is in two parts. First, a player may move one of their stones up to two spaces in any direction, including diagonally, in what is called a passive (or set up) move. Second, they take a more aggressive move, which must be the same direction and number of spaces as the first move. It is this second move that allows you to push stones across the board - or off the board's edge. Remove all four of your opponent's stones from just one of the four boards to win.
SHOBU evokes the feeling of GO or CHESS but provides its own unique challenge. It feels immediately familiar and yet is wholly distinct and engaging.
SHOBU (ENGLISH) is categorised BOARDGAMES / GENERAL PUBLIC GAMES / 1-2 PLAYERS GAMES and sold by l'Imaginaire, a store and specialised website.

un bibelot ou un jeu ? | |
Shobu est un de ses jeux abstrait d'un simplicité déconcertante mais avec une profondeur de jeu incroyable ! Les composante du jeu sont belle à pouvoir même le laisser sur une table à café en permanence !! Parties rapide mais vous voudrez en enchainer une aprèes l'autre ! |

Parfaitement construit | |
Réel casse-tête de stratégie de défense et d'attaque, ce jeu est sans aucun doute très bien pensé et construit, avec un visuel plaisant. Un jeu a laisser "traîner" sur la table à café pour des parties spontanées! |
