Dans le labyrinthe du château, collectez des Trésors, Cristaux et Jetons pour mener à bien votre mission. Faites glisser les Murs du labyrinthe (feuilles transparentes) pour créer un chemin pour votre Ninja, manier des Outils et Armes, manipuler quelquefois des spectres et avec un peu de chance conquérir le château et vos ennemis.

What a gimmick! The maze moves under the ninja pieces.
Strategically slide the transparent sheet with red and blue walls to go retrieve treasures and items!
Main board design is selectable and replaceable!
The game can be enjoyed with up to 9* different types of stage settings, items and obstacle layouts, from elementary to advanced stages (*Kicker’s DELUXE Edition, if all stretch goals unlocked)!
In addition, you have four mission levels to choose from.
The estimated playing time depends on the combination of mission and stage difficulty (*From elementary level 15 minutes to advanced 90 minutes).
Use various ninja tools and weapons to get closer to achieving your goal. You may also summon and manipulate Japanese specters as allies to chase down opponents.
GACHIJO’s unique world is created by a visual design and characterization that blends Japanese historical facts and fiction. In the development process, we stayed in Iga, one of the birthplaces of the ninja in Japan, to research and learn about its distinctive skills, traditional tools, and history.
It was the Sengoku Period in the Middle Ages of Japan. GACHIJO, a castle that had been rumored since ancient times but whose location had remained a mystery, was finally discovered deep in the mountains. According to legend, the castle, which lost its master after an era of prosperity several hundred years ago, still contains hidden treasures with mysterious powers, and whoever possesses them will surely become the ruler of the country. Word spread quickly among the Tokugawa, Toyotomi, Oda, and Takeda feudal lords, who were eagerly awaiting their chance to reign. They immediately sent their own ninja to the castle, vying to be the first to collect the treasures.
However, the entire castle was a moving maze of ever-changing positions, and the Guardians of the Treasures, in the form of specters, lurked within. In essence, a castle full of traps.
Two editions to choose from.
• STANDARD Edition
• Kickstarter Exclusive DELUXE Bundle
The contents (game components) and pricing for each will be announced in the Kickstarter campaign!
