It’s Japanese chess, if you’re wondering. Whatever possessed Rubicon to choose an ultra-obscure game like this for their debut is beyond us, but they’ve done a great job of making it, and of teaching you how it’s played.It’ll be big in Japan; over here, not so much. A great way to meet Japanese people?
