Sushi Go – The Decide and Move household Card Recreation from Gamewright, nice for 2-5 gamers aged 8 and up

Good Family Fun!
We’ve enjoyed this game with family, friends, and cousins of all ages. It takes round or two to learn the rules but is generally quick and easy. We’ve used this personally, given it as a gift, and would gift it again. It comes in a small compact tin which is great for storage and transport.

Ring Side Report-Board Game Review of Sushi Go!

Sushi Go! is a simple family card game that follows many of the same drafting mechanics popular in 7 Wonders and Among the Stars. Players start with a hand of cards and choose a card. All players reveal their chosen cards simultaneously. Some cards are instant point cards like nigiri cards. Other cards are worth more as you gain more of the same card like dumplings. Yet others need a specific number of cards of one type to get any points like tempura where every two score points. And some are worth more depending who has the most of them at the end of the game. There are also wasabi that multiply other cards, and the chopsticks card. If players have a chopstick card, they can shout “Sushi Go!” and take a second card from the same hand of cards. After selecting your card for the round, you pass the cards to the left. When you only have two cards, you choose one card, and then throw the other into the center. After three total hands like this, players determine who has the most points and is the winner.Mechanics- I like a good drafting game. This one plays quick and teaches even quicker. My sister who can’t read scored as many points as I did while my mom scored the least points. It’s a blast to play and won’t require encyclopedic knowledge of some obscure rules. 5/5Theme- Here is where the game suffers. I don’t get the feeling I get from Wasabi of being a chef. This game has cute sushi, but beyond the box and the art, there isn’t really a story here. If story doesn’t matter to you, then this game is great. 3/5Instructions- The instructions are a single booklet that’s less than ten pages. It doesn’t take much to learn and play this game. 5/5Execution- The cards are decent quality and the whole game comes is a metal tin. The art is great and all cutesy. And for less than 15 bucks? Well worth the price of admission. 5/5Summary- This game has the family board game awards all wrapped up, and I can see why. It’s cheap, easy to play, and doesn’t require a ton of priming to get into. It’s a great intro board game that doesn’t break the bank and travels well too. 90%

Great game for new gamers
If you’re considering purchasing this item now, and if money is no object, you should look to Sushi Go Party instead. Sushi Go Party! Card GameSushi Go! Is a great game, but Sushi Go Party is basically everything Sushi Go! is and more. I have heard rumors that the quality of the card stock used in Sushi Go Party is a bit worse than what is used in Sushi Go!, but I’ve never handled the Party edition so I can’t say for certain. I can say that the card stock used in Sushi Go! is great.Sushi Go! is a “pass and play” game, and the first of it’s type that I had ever tried. Basically everyone starts with a handful of cards, decides one to play, and passes the rest of the cards (all the ones they decided not to play) on to the player next to them. This goes around and around until all the cards have been played. After everything has been played you total up everyones points for the round and see who won.This is one of those games I break out when the other players are not regular gamers. It’s easy enough to learn, and the theme is cute and… well… tasty. The rounds are short enough that people won’t get bored, and since everyone is basically taking their turn at the exact same time there’s no waiting around.I find this game is a bit chaotic for my strategic slow game preferences. Since everyone is playing at the same time it’s difficult to base your play according to what everyone else is doing. It’s also pretty hard to remember everything that is flying by as you pass the cards from person to person. I saw the maki roll last time, but now it’s, gone? Or it just hasn’t come back yet? Glance at the table to see if someone played it… by then you’re almost holding up the game! This quick speedy aspect is also what makes the game fun, so probably shouldn’t complain much there. Only other personal gripe I have with the game is that while play is super fast paced and frantic, scoring each round takes a second. There are multipliers and each card type has a different way of being scored, so you can’t just look at everyones play area and quickly determine who won the round.Good times though! Lots of laughs and great for new gaming groups. Plays well with 4 players so if your’e a pair of couples it’s a great game to break out.The metal tin is quality as well!

Easy to learn and lots of fun
We play lots of different board and card games. This one is a lot of fun. It is quick to learn and quick to play. There is some strategy but it isn’t overly complex. The cards look nice and the tin can is nice compared to a cardboard box.

Go for it, it’s a fun and easy to learn game.

I bought Sushi Go! for my nieces, and it’s been an absolute hit. The game is quick to learn, fast-paced, and full of fun – ideal for keeping everyone engaged. It’s great for all ages, so the whole family can join in, and each round is short, making it easy to play a few quick games. The cute sushi artwork adds extra charm, and it’s the perfect mix of strategy and luck. Highly recommend for family game nights.

“Sushi Go!” ist ein abwechslungsreiches Spiel für praktisch jede Gelegenheit und jedes Alter. Die Regeln sind zudem einfach zu erlernen und innerhalb von wenigen Minuten von jedem verstanden:Gespielt werden drei Runden. Jeder Spieler bekommt pro Runde eine je nach Anzahl der Mitspieler variierende Anzahl an Karten und darf sich dann seinen Stapel anschauen. Jeder Spieler darf eine Karte ziehen und verdeckt vor sich ablegen. Dann wird gleichzeitig aufgedeckt und die Karten wandern im Uhrzeigersinn weiter zum Nachbarn im Sinne eines sich drehenden “Running Sushi”.Nun beginnen die strategischen Überlegungen: Es gibt keine Karte, bei der nicht eine einfach Regel zu beachten ist, mit der sich der Punktgewinn maximieren lässt. Gleichzeitig besteht aber natürlich immer die Gefahr, dass ein Mitspieler die gleiche Strategie fährt und so beginnt der “Kampf” um die besten Karten, um aus jeder Runde möglichst viele Punkte mitzunehmen. Hier gibt es verschiedene Möglichkeiten: Manche Karten geben sofort Punkte, von anderen muss man mehrere sammeln, damit man im Endeffekt die Punkte einsackt. Jeder Spieler überlegt nun also: Sammele ich die Klößchen, die mir, wenn ich Glück habe, bis zu 15 Punkte einbringen können? Oder konzentriere ich mich lieber zunächst darauf, mit dem Wasabi-Multiplikator dreifache Punkte aus einem Tintenfisch-Nigiri herauszuholen? Gleichzeitig muss man immer im Hinterkopf haben, dass vielleicht jemand schon Puddinge sammelt, die mir am Ende des Spiels doch noch den Sieg kosten könnten.Wer sich gut die Zusammensetzung der einzelnen Stapel merken kann, ist zwar leicht im Vorteil, während des Spiels wird es aber schnell so aufregend, dass dies immer schwieriger wird.Hinzu kommt das liebevolle Design der Karten und die tollen Farben, hier ist auf jeden Fall auch die amerikanische Version der deutschen vorzuziehen, die Karten sehen einfach viel niedlicher aus.Einziger kleiner Kritikpunkt wäre, neben dem etwas zu hohen Preis für ein “einfaches” Kartenspiel (immerhin in einer dekorativen Metallbox), dass die Qualität der Karten nicht den allerbesten Eindruck macht. Durch das häufige Mischen, Ziehen usw. sehen die Karten recht schnell etwas mitgenommen aus – trotzdem, der Spielspaß, das Design und die Idee, leckeres Sushi als Spiel umzusetzen, geben im Endeffekt die volle Punktzahl. Nur zu empfehlen!
