About the game

What you do in a play session

Japan, 1707: Mount Fuji is about to erupt, and the Shogun has sent his best samurai to rescue sacred relics before everything is consumed by lava. In Fuji Koro, you'll explore dangerous caves, face legendary dragons, and collect magical items, all while the volcano rumbles beneath your feet. The game can be played cooperatively or competitively, with an action point system that demands strategic choices every turn. Get ready to roll dice, manage resources, and decide when it's time to run for the exit before the eruption swallows everything. Who will escape with the most treasures?
