WHERE IS MY PARTS? 2020

WHERE IS MY PARTS? is a matchbox games from Japan. As part of a crowdfunding campaign to support a Tokyo game cafe, the designer Sharkyuu produced some new matchbox games. One of them is Where Is My Parts? co-produced with SoLunerG.

In this game, the two players are monsters constructed from various body parts. They want to go out for Trick or Treat, but they are lacking some of their bits and must be repaired before leaving.

Each player has some tokens, in black or white, showing three neck bolts (value=1), two brains (2), or one heart (3). These tokens and a bonus lollipop token will go into the matchbox. When it is carefully shaken up, one token is able to slide out under the divider in the matchbox tray. If the token belongs to that player, they keep it and score the points. The first to get to six points in total is the winner.

Each turn, both players secretly choose tokens from their supply to the total value of 1 to 3, and these go into the tray along with the lollipop. After each turn, the tokens are returned from the tray to each player's secret supply.

If the lollipop token comes out, and the player is behind in the scoring, they keep it for a bonus 1 point. otherwise it goes back into the tray for the next turn. user summary
