In Samurai, players aim to capture figures of three types that are spread across the Japanese islands. Each player has twenty tokens that are positioned to permit the captures to take place. The player who deploys their tokens with the most skill to capture more figures than their opponents wins the game. The total number of figures captured is not the most important thing, it is whether more of each figure is captured by you than by the other players.
Samurai was designed by Reiner Knizia and is published by Hans im Glück (German edition) and Rio Grande Games (English edition).
Samurai is © 1998 Hans im Glück / Rio Grande Games.
