About the Game

Banzai!

Le jeu qui rend Fu...

12 families battle for title Banzai Master. They will need strategy and also very quick reflexes in order to be successful..

The game consists of a number of turns in which one player and his family is eliminated from the game. Only the quickest player should be the Banzai Master.

During one turn, players change cards simultaneously, but not chaotically. By using particular combinations of cards, they can make announcements, which have effect on the position of the pawns in the game. The number of pawns is smaller than number of players and when any player announce Banzai!, everyone reaches for his pawn. Those who have no pawn, are eliminated for this game.

Advanced rules come with more announcements.
