Walking in Osaka

Walking in Osaka

2025·Daniel Lee Yingjie

1 - 4 players
15 - 30 min
Medium weight: Teach it in one sitting

From BoardGameGeek

Transcending the barriers of time and space, traveler Fanny finds herself in medieval Osaka. It is 1620, and the Tokugawa shogunate is rebuilding the castle fortifications. As she strolls through the bustling city streets, Fanny immerses herself in the unique atmosphere of the castle town. She discovers how the different districts supported one another in ancient times and creates a vivid panorama for her photobook. Walking in Osaka is a card drafting and tableau-building game. Draft town cards, layer buildings, and explore strategic scoring opportunities across beautifully themed districts, as you recreate the interconnected prosperity of a historical Japanese city. -description from the publisher
