Superbly illustrated by Paul Mafayon, Théo Guillot, and Adrien Martinez, Runemasters takes you into a heroic-fantasy universe that is as colorful as it is merciless.

The Tokaido Deluxe Edition is absolutely stunning. The packaging is beautiful, and the figurines are high-quality and can even be painted to match each character’s artwork. Everything inside feels premium — from the coins, task cards, and character cards to the large, gorgeous game board. It even comes with a CD of wonderful music that perfectly sets the mood. What makes this game special is the experience itself — unlike many other board games where the focus is only on winning, Tokaido is calming and immersive. Even when you lose, you feel like you’ve been on a serene journey, almost in a state of Japanese nirvana. It’s a fantastic choice for multiplayer gatherings and game nights, especially for players who enjoy a more relaxing and artistic style of gameplay. Highly recommend!
