Nakasendo is a strategic tile-placement board game inspired by the historic Japanese route linking Edo, now Tokyo, with Kyoto during the Edo period.
Create your own journey between Tsumago and Magome by arranging path tiles, adding discoveries, and developing a rewarding route through mountain landscapes, cedar forests, and old post towns.
As you travel, changing seasons introduce obstacles such as snow and bears, challenging you to adjust your plans and reconsider how best to earn points. Scoring conditions evolve throughout the game, making careful decisions and flexible planning essential.
Every tile you place contributes to the outcome of your journey. When the game ends, the player who has created the most rewarding path claims victory.
