About the game

What is Tokaido Duo?

Tokaido Duo is a two-player game set on the Japanese island of Shikoku. Each player controls three characters — a Pilgrim, a Merchant, and an Artist — guiding them around the island to earn victory points. Players use dice to move their characters, visiting temples, gardens, seashores, coastal towns, hot springs, and mountain towns. The player who earns the most combined points from their three characters wins.
