Shobu Game - Smirk & Dagger

Shobu is a beautifully crafted abstract strategy game for two players.

​On your turn you move one of your stones up to two spaces in any direction, including diagonally. This is your passive move.

Then match that move with another of your stones on the opposite colour board (pour active move).  This may and push an opponent’s stone off the board's edge if it is in the path. ​The first player to remove all four of their opponent's stones from any one board is the winner.

Shobu is made of beautiful, natural elements, wood boards, a cotton rope divider and tumbled river stones as playing pieces, giving it incredible table appeal. Instantly familiar, yet wholly unique unto its own, Shobu feels like a game that has stood the test of time. The rules are amazingly simple and can be learned in moments, yet halfway through your first game, you realise the game has great depth and spatial challenge.
