Full disclosure: A review copy of Tokaido Duo was provided by Flat River Games.
I try to do thematic weeks occasionally; like in October, there's Spooky Games week or the occasional Christmas-themed game around the holidays. For Valentine's Day, I do err on the side of doing a bunch of two-player games, though that might be dicey depending on what your Valentine's Day plans are. No judgment if you're playing solo games or if you're playing four-player games this Valentine's Day as long as all involved parties are cool with it. If you're playing six-player Dominion, though, this metaphor kind of falls apart, so don't do that. Either way, let's check out Tokaido Duo! It's been a while since I've talked about Tokaido, so let's find out what's new!
In Tokaido Duo, both players are pitted against each other with one terrible goal: have the nicest time possible. Each guiding a merchant, an artist, and a pilgrim, you'll move around, visit lovely temples and gardens, paint and gift paintings, and acquire and sell wares to move ever closer towards your goals. The more you do, the more you get, and the more you score. Just be careful! Your opponent can block you, at times, if you get too close to them. Will you be able to have a lovely outing in Japan?
