SHOBU: Beautiful, Challenging, Aesthetic, Abstract Game
Beautifully Challenging
SHOBU is a beautifully crafted abstract strategy game for two players.
​On your turn: Move one of your stones up to two spaces in any direction, including diagonally. Match that move with another of your stones on the opposite color board – and push an opponent’s stone off the board's edge. ​Remove all four of your opponent's stones from any ONE board to win.
SHOBU is made of beautiful, natural elements, wood boards, a cotton rope divider and tumbled river stones as playing pieces, giving it incredible table appeal. Instantly familiar, yet wholly unique unto its own, SHOBU feels like a game that has stood the test of time. The rules are amazingly simple and can be learned in moments, yet halfway through your first game, you realize the game has a depth and spatial challenge similar to 3-D chess. Simply brilliant.
