Tiger and Dragon brings a modern twist to Goita, a traditional Japanese tile game. Created through a dream collaboration between Arclight Games and Oink Games, this Japanese edition board game uses Mahjong-style tiles for quick, high-tension play. Designed by Atsushi Hashimoto from an original concept by Kunihito Nozawa, it puts a fresh spin on classic tabletop strategies.
Players take turns attacking and defending, racing to shed their hand of tiles first. You defend by matching the attack tile, then immediately counter with a move of your own. Winning a round earns you score chips based on your final tile, and the first player to collect ten chips wins the game. Ten battlefield cards change the rules every round, shifting which tiles are strong or weak and keeping tactics unpredictable round after round.
Each game runs about 20 minutes, for two to five players aged eight and older.
The set includes 38 tiles, 50 score chips, 5 player boards, 10 battlefield cards, 1 start player marker, and an instruction manual. This is a secondhand item in clean condition, with no noticeable scratches or dirt.
