About the game

What you do in a play session

Straight from the 2022 Kickstarter cauldron, Andre the Goliath has arrived, a juicy addition for those who already enjoy the brawls of Kabuto Sumo! This little gem brings a new fighter to the arena, Andre himself, who comes with a trick up his sleeve (or rather, on his plate): an exclusive peanut piece. Think of him as the new heavyweight in your collection, ready to challenge the other insects with his strength and, perhaps, a bit of luck. The expansion doesn't complicate things, maintaining the agile and fun feel of the base game. If you thought Kabuto Sumo was already good, get ready for another dose of fun with this fighter who promises to shake up your games. It's the kind of addition that makes you want to play again just to see this new big guy in action and test your skills against him. Perfect for those looking for an extra touch of novelty without having to relearn everything. It's pick up and play, adding a new spice to the fight for the center of the arena!

Frequently Asked Questions

Quick answers before you buy

6 questions
Do I need the base Kabuto Sumo game to play with this expansion?
Yes, absolutely! Andre the Goliath is an expansion and requires the board and components from the original Kabuto Sumo to be played.
How many players does this expansion support?
The expansion itself doesn't change the player count. It adds a fighter, so you still play with the same number of people as the base game allows.
Is it complicated to add Andre to the games?
Not at all! The idea is precisely for it to be a quick addition. You just add Andre and his peanut piece, and you can start playing.
What makes Andre different from the other fighters?
He brings his exclusive peanut piece, which can be used as a surprise or strategic element in battles. Additionally, he's a fighter with a certain weight, which can influence the dynamic.
Does this expansion significantly change the Kabuto Sumo experience?
It adds a touch of novelty and a new opponent to challenge, but it maintains the essence of dexterity and quick fun from the base game. It's more of a spice than a radical change.
Where can I get this expansion?
Originally, it was part of the 2022 Kickstarter bundle. It might appear in re-releases or in specialized stores during game promotions.
