Short, simple, and fun for all. Jan 16, 2012 By para
I'm always looking for good games that can accommodate a wide variation in number of players. Even those that do often play best with a specific number, so the list of games that play well with large or small group is very short.

Tsuro distinguishes itself from this already exclusive list by being incredibly easy to introduce to new players, playing in less than a half hour and being great for younger players as well.

Gameplay is straightforward: each turn you play a tile from your hand in front of your pawn. Each tile has four paths, each one connecting two of the eight marks on the sides of the tiles. You then move your pawn along the path it is on. The strategy comes from the fact that if your tile creates paths for any of the other player's pieces they also move. The goal is to stay on the board, while trying to force your opponents off it.

Tsuro plays equally well with anywhere from 2 to 8 people, and is easily understandable for anyone in the suggested age range (8 & up). It's a light strategy game, where the luck of which tiles you draw can largely effect the outcome. However it's a lot of fun, and the short start up and play times make it a great game to have on hand for any group of players.

Simple, Fun Game May 17, 2010 By A. Stoute
It's hard to find games that will play 8 people, I got Tsuro because it fit this description. This game couldn't be simpler to learn and play, play time is about 10 - 15 minutes. We've played it with 2 people, all the way through to with 8 people and enjoy it every time. There's some strategy involved, but our 8 year old plays and loves this game, and so do the grown-ups. Given the quick play time is is an easy choice for a quick game on school nights, or when there's not hours to invest in a game.

The board is a good sturdy quality as are the pieces. All in all this was a great purchase and one that I am sure will get plenty of use in our house, and in our regular board game group.

Quick and enjoyable Dec 29, 2011 By Mike Werling
I've played this twice with my daughter and one of her friends (11 and 12 years old, respectively). The quality of the board, cards, and marks is good. The cards are heavy stock, making them a little difficult to shuffle, but they work very well when placed on the board.

Game play is simple. For the second game we found that we worked a little harder at strategy, but it was mostly defensive. I can see how it would be even more fun with more players and better chance at knocking someone else off of the board. Games are very quick, just 10-15 minutes for the three of us.

We did have some confusion about what to do with the "dragon" tile. However, after playing it I can see how this might come into play with a larger number of players and better chance at eliminating players during the game.

Lots of fun! Apr 07, 2010 By James H. Alstrum-acevedo
Tsuro is a very fun board game which changes every time you play it. Because the possible paths your pieces can follow are influenced by which tiles the other players choose to play, no two games of Tsuro are the same. This diversity in outcomes makes Tsuro a great game to play. Also it's rules are very simple and straight forward, so it's easy to master and get new players up to speed. This game is appropriate for both adults and children.

What a great game! May 09, 2012 By thehelinskis
I really never got into many board games before. probably because the ones i played were monopoly, sorry, etc.. i saw this game on Geek and Sundry's Tabletop. i thought the game looked great and went ahead and ordered it. my shipping was fast. we got the game today and played multiple times. it was a lot of fun, especially once you play and each game is different.

the quality is really good too. it has a nice asian/dragon theme, and the pieces and board were well made. i would recommend this game to everyone.
