Sakura Heroes – A Fast-Paced Dice Game for Anime Fans Ages 7 and Up

I bought this for Christmas and I'm glad I did. You simultaneously roll the dice to get a goal tile first. Once you get a goal tile you move up the tree. You don't necessarily win by being the first to the top. It's whoever has the most points based on the diamonds you have collected. It is fast paced. The kids and I really like it. The board and pieces are a good quality. I'd absolutely recommend getting it. Average game is about 15 minutes or so.

I bought this for my 8 yo daughter who loves board games. I originally got it because it was on a huge sale, but honestly it's become one of my favorite games to play. It's fast paced and easy to learn. We're all pretty competitive, but since it's kind of like Phase 10 as far as progression goes, it gives slower players a chance to catch up. Pieces are nice quality, and the characters and artwork are super cute!

This dice game is very fast paced and pretty fun! We first played it with three adults and a 12-year-old. The instructions, which are written in many different languages, seemed very wordy and overly complicated; it took us a few minutes to fully understand the setup. Which is kind of crazy because this is a very simple game. I do feel that the 7+ age range is accurate. My daughter, 12, really liked this one because it was much easier for her to compete against adults than some other games we’ve played in the past. The game design is very adorable. The game board is a two piece puzzle that you can assemble in various different ways based on the number of players or if you just want to make it a little bit more difficult. Game storage is a two piece box, typical of most gains, feels fairly sturdy and is no bigger than it needs to be to store the game. It’s a super fast paced game, the four of us played maybe five games that first try, and from deciphering the instructions to gameplay, it took maybe an hour. We all had a blast and will definitely keep this in our game rotation.

This is such a fun game to play with your kids! Instructions are simple and easy to read and to use to teach kiddos how to play.

Got this as a gift for a family member who does game night a lot with friends. They loved it, and it’s perfect to play inbetween bigger games.

While it does take a minute to read through the instructions and understand what's going on, once you get the hang of it, the rules of the game are very straightforward. The board is double-sided with slightly different rules if you're playing as 2 players or 3+ players. For this review, I played a 2-player game. The goal is to reach the top of the mountain first, and on each level, there is a task to roll for and a corresponding diamond card. Each player takes 5 dice and tries to accomplish any single task available per level. For instance, tasks may include landing your dice on "all dice X color" or "all dice must be flower symbols" or "dice cannot be yellow or flower symbols". You get the idea. Everyone gets their own set of five dice and rolls. On each roll, you can keep or swap out any dice you like until you accomplish the task. The first to do so collects that task and matching diamond card and moves up a level. Then the next round begins, leaving fewer possible tasks for the player(s) stuck behind. The game ends when any player reaches the top of the mountain. At the end of the game, you reveal your diamond cards which have a value from 1-4 on the back, and the person with the most total points wins. This leaves a degree of luck, since it's possible the player who reaches the top may not have the most points, although they will have the most diamond cards and the best odds of winning. That explanation may sound a little convoluted, but once you actually start to play, it feels fluid and fast-paced. It requires some quick decision making since you have to decide which task to go for on your given level of the mountain as the dice land. Given the mix of quick strategy and luck, it's also possible for players who are far behind to quickly catch up (as has happened with me in multiple games), and the luck element helps keep it feeling fair even if you have players of differing ages playing. I thought the game was a lot of fun! Each game is very quick, allowing you to get a full match in in roughly 10 minutes, so there isn't a huge time commitment to play. This'll be a fun one to keep around for game nights!

Middelgrote doos (A5). Mooie heldere tekeningen in een anime-trend die het jonge publiek 'en vogue' onmiddellijk bevalt. Leuk als cadeau. Het artikel is een beetje prijzig, maar ik heb het kunnen kopen in promotie aan de helft van de prijs, dus dat is ok.

Sakura Heroes è un gioco semplice ma davvero divertente, perfetto per i più piccoli. Le mie bambine lo adorano: passano il tempo a esplorare i personaggi, le ambientazioni colorate e le tante possibilità che il gioco offre. Mi piace molto il fatto che possano sperimentare varie situazioni e possibilità, inventando storie e avventure sempre nuove. Non è complicato da usare, il che lo rende accessibile anche ai bambini più piccoli. Unica nota: potrebbe avere qualche difficoltà in più per aumentare la longevità.

Habe dieses Spiel für meine Nichte gekauft. Sie hat sich mega gefreut und waren auch lustige Runden. Kann ich empfehlen.

Enkel finden dieses Spiel abwechslungsreich, sind zufrieden.

Das Spiel bietet wenig Taktik und ist hauptsächlich ein Würfelspiel. Man würfelt gleichzeitig mit 5 Würfeln pro Person und versucht verschiedenen Symbole der Aufgaben Karten zu erwürfeln. Schafft man das bekommt man eine Diamantkarte und steigt eine Stufe auf. Dazu bekommt man nun einen Würfel mehr. Wenn einer der Spieler oben auf dem Spielbrett angekommen ist, endet das Spiel und jeder zählt seine Diamant Karten. Meinem Enkel hat es sehr viel Spaß gemacht da er nicht warten musste bis er an der Reihe war sondern mit mir zusammen würfeln konnte. Auch die bunten Symbole und Würfel sind für Kinder perfekt. Einfach zu erfassen und zu vergleichen. Die Regeln sind recht einfach erklärt. Das bunte Spielbrett wird aus 2 Teilen zusammen gesetzt und aus dickem Karton der auch raue Spieler aushält. Die Würfel sind aus Holz. Die Spielfiguren und Karten sind ebenfalls aus dickem Karton und müssen erst aus dem Karton herausgelöst werden. Auch sie sind stabil und haltbar. Mir war das Spiel etwas zu hektisch und wir haben es nur zu zweit gespielt. Bei 4 jungen Spielern dürfte es am Tisch ganz schön wild hergehen. Hauptsache aber es hat meinem Enkel gefallen, der war voll dabei - damit finde ich das Spiel gut und würde es weiter empfehlen.
