About the game

What you do in a play session

Get ready for a souped-up version of 'Monopoly' straight from Japan! In 大財族 (Dai Zai Batsu), Konami invites you to hit the board and become a real estate tycoon. The vibe is classic: you move around the map, buy properties, and watch your empire grow... or shrink.

The big twist here is the atmosphere! The value of your real estate ventures goes up and down according to the weather, which is determined by card draws. Imagine buying a beachfront hotel and suddenly a cold snap crashes its value! Or a heatwave makes your ice cream business boom? It's this climatic randomness that adds a special flavor to the property dispute.

The goal is simple: be the last one standing or the wealthiest when the game ends. You'll need luck with your rolls and weather cards, but also a good dose of strategy to choose where to invest. Is it worth buying that property that's losing value because of the rain? Or is it better to wait for the sun to return?

Dai Zai Zai Batsu is for those who enjoy the nostalgia of classic board games, with that thrill of buying and selling, but want an extra touch of unpredictability. If you like seeing your money grow (or disappear!) in unexpected ways, this game might be your next obsession. It's one of those experiences that makes you laugh at the twists of fate and the real estate market.
