About the Game

This is a freebie game by Toryo Hojo where players are the head of local Japanese government and try to reduce the number of people affected by the decline of the economy from COVID-19. Players muct make good use of the “Manbo” policy to slow down the new Coronavirus!

Each player controls regions of Japan that have a matrix of infected population and economic health. On their turn, a player rolls dice and performs an action from the chart:

COVID excise tax increase Healthcare subsidy Unemployment stimulus Stay-at-home request Go eat Go travel "Manbo!"

With the other die, they must raise the infected population of the matching region.

Because the COVID outbreak occurred in the same year the Tokyo Olympics were scheduled to happen, the torch relay happens contemporaneously with player actions and is used as a timer for the end of the game.

The game was included as a part of the Spring 2021 Market Crash pack.
