TOKYO JIDOHANBAIKI (2018)

About this game

TOKYO JIDOHANBAIKI is a game about Japanese vending machines and drinks, with multiple 5-10 minute games inside. The core of the gameplay centers on a vending machine drink tower, into which miniature drinks are dropped. Some of the drinks will come out again, and others won't! Included in the game are six drink types, with six different colors, that fit conveniently into six yellow drink crates. Each game has its own unique twist, offering a fun and easy to pick up experience for 1-6 players. On top of the standalone games included, JIDOHANBAIKI comes with extra components and rules that are used specifically to integrate with both TOKYO METRO & TOKYO JUTAKU. —description from the publisher

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 1 to 12. It has a designed solo mode.
• Rules load. At 1.0/5 this is a light game — explain it in a few minutes, good for a table that has not played much.
• Age. The publisher suggests 14 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
