Bushido Breaker is a hidden movement card game of deduction & calculated risks, themed as ninja vs. samurai, that is 2-4 players.
The game revolves around the ninja trying to move location-to-location, either disarming enough alarms before assassinating the shogun or by killing all the samurai, in order to win. The samurai are trying to kill the ninja or notice them enough in order to catch them.
The cards either represent different locations, ninja & samurai actions, or samurai. Every card that the ninja has as an action, the samurai has a counter to. Through deduction, each team is trying to figure out what the other will play round-to-round. Though the samurai greatly out-number the ninja, their greatest challenge is figuring out where the ninja are and what they'll do next...
* Please note: there is no notepad in this Tabletopia version, so for those of you playing as ninja - be honest.
"* As we broke out Bushido Breaker and began to get into it, my reaction quickly went from ‘This is cute’ to ‘This is clever,’ and finally to ‘This is devilishly good.’"
