Nyakuza - How To Play

Watch It Played

Watch It Played

Watch “Nyakuza - How To Play,” a how-to-play guide for Nyakuza from Watch It Played on BoardGameVideo.

Description provided by Watch It Played on YouTube:

In this video, we're going to learn how to play Nyakuza! If you have any comments or questions, please do not hesitate to post them in the YouTube comments below. NOTE: If all players bid 0 Kobans during a turn, no one gets boats during the Bid for Boat phase. As such, the Amulet token remains with the current holder, since there was no highest bidder. Then, all players split the pool of Koban in the Wharf equally and proceed to the next round, since no one has boats to place this turn.

About Nyakuza, from BoardGameGeek:

Nyakuza is a competitive game for 2-4 players. Each player is the head of a Cat Yakuza Clan, vying for control over the fishing industry. Get ahead of the competition! Bid for Boats to go out and net the freshest catch in the Bay and establish your seafood Stalls before your rivals. The first Clan to build their Grand Market Stall wins the game! Control the Fishing Industry Around Oki-Yo Bay The waters of Oki-Yo Bay are teeming with fish. Such a lucrative spot would be a great place to set up operations for the different Nyakuza Clan. But, in the end, only one can be top-cat. In Nyakuza, players take on the role of heads of their respective Nyazuka clan. They will bid for boats that will catch the freshest fish out in the bay, then sell them in their seafood Stalls. Each player is racing to build their own Grand Market Stall first, which will prove that they are the best clan and win the game.
