Players 2 (Best with 2) Playing Time 15-30 Mins Age 8+ Complexity 1.75/5 Type 2 Player Shobu is a beautifully crafted abstract strategy game for two players. The game features 4 sq uare 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 winGame Components(4) 5 1/2” etched wood game boards(16) Black polished river stones(16) White polished river stones(1) cotton dividing rope Show more
