Game Schooler Recommendation

Sushi Go! is a fast-paced introduction to drafting games with adorable artwork and clever combinations. Each turn, players select a card from their hand and pass the rest. This simplified game works with the whole family and only takes about 15 minutes to play. We like Sushi Go as a primer for more advanced drafting games like 7 Wonders and Bunny Kingdom. The rules are easy to learn and teach while introducing younger players to risk management and tactical thinking skills. If you want even more variety in your game, we recommend taking a look at Sushi Go Party.

Game Overview

Pass the sushi! In this fast-playing card game, the goal is to grab the best combination of sushi dishes as they whiz by. Score points for making the most maki rolls or for collecting a full set of sashimi. Dip your favorite nigiri in wasabi to triple its value. But be sure to leave room for dessert or else you’ll eat into your score! Gather the most points and consider yourself the sushi master!
