About the game

What you do in a play session

You know that final touch that makes a meal perfect? That's exactly what the Soy Sauce promo does for Sushi Go!. If you already enjoy the frantic dynamic of building your sushi plate while passing cards to your friends, this mini-expansion adds an extra layer of strategy without complicating things for anyone. Basically, it introduces four Soy Sauce cards into the deck, which act as a diversity bonus.

The logic is simple: the player who manages to collect the greatest variety of card colors during the round earns 4 extra points. This completely changes how you view the table. Instead of just focusing on making that giant Sashimi combo or hoarding Maki, you start thinking, 'Is it worth taking that different colored card just to secure the soy sauce bonus?'. It's the kind of addition that creates interesting dilemmas in seconds, forcing you to balance specialization with versatility.

This promo is tiny in size, but it impacts the final score, making the competition more intense. It's worth noting that it was included in the 2016 release of Sushi Go Party, but for those with the original base game, it serves as an extra seasoning to refresh your matches. It's ideal for those who have already mastered the game and want a new goal to pursue while trying to sabotage their neighbor's hand. If you're looking for that 'little something extra' for your fast-paced game nights, Soy Sauce is the right choice to upgrade your virtual banquet.
