Discover a timeless battle of movement and positioning with Shobu. This elegant abstract strategy game challenges two players to outthink one another across four wooden boards using beautifully tactile black and white river stones.
Every turn begins with a peaceful move on one board, followed by an aggressive move of the same direction and distance on a board of the opposite colour. The second move can push an opposing stone towards the edge, rewarding careful planning across the entire playing area. Remove all four opposing stones from any one board to win.
