Description
Japan, 1605 – Hidetada Tokugawa succeeds his father as the new shogun. He rules the land from his seat in Yedo, the city known today as Tokyo. This marks the beginning of the golden age of the Tokugawa Shogunate and the Edo period, which will last until 1868. The most powerful families in Yedo immediately scramble to gain the new shogun's favor – and that is where your game begins!
In the strategy game Yedo, you become the head of a clan in the city of Edo during the early years of the Tokugawa Shogunate. Your goal is to collect prestige points and, above all, complete your missions. You must outsmart your opponents and prevent them from finishing their own tasks.
There are several ways to achieve your goal in the game. It is entirely up to you – but be careful with your decisions. Eternal glory and painful disgrace are two sides of the same coin…
The game is in English.

Lords of Waterdeep on steroids – that’s the reputation that preceded this game... and in a way, it’s a pretty accurate description. The game system is quite similar to Lords of Waterdeep, but Yedo is significantly more complex, and the playtime can easily be double that of the Lords. The game components are very nice (though the game board could be thicker), and the mini-stories on the mission cards add great atmosphere, just like the randomly drawn event cards. Simply a great choice for fans of long and complex worker-placement games.
Lords of WaterDeep na steroidech - tahle pověst hru předcházela... no a v určutém směru je to celkem trefné označení. Herní systém má k Lords of Waterdeep poměrně blízko, ale co do komplexnosti je Yedo přecejen podstatně výš a i herní doba může být dvojnásobná než u Lordů. Herní materiál je moc pěkný (akorát herní plán by mohl být tlustší) minipříběhy na kartách misí dodávají hře atmosféru, stejně jako náhodně tahané karty událostí. Prostě dobrá volba pro milovníky dlouhých a komplexních worker-placement her.
