About this board game
Naruto Shippuden Deck-Building Game is a deck-building game for 2–5 players, with sessions lasting about 90 minutes. Play as Naruto or one of his comrades as you explore distant lands, gather new abilities, and pursue the goal of becoming the greatest ninja ever.
Every player begins with only basic abilities. As the game develops, you can gain allies, earn equipment, build chakra, and master powerful techniques. Your growing deck gives you new ways to face dangerous opponents, including S-rank criminals such as Orochimaru and members of the Akatsuki.
The game uses Cryptozoic’s Cerebus deck-building engine. In this system, Power serves as the currency used to acquire or defeat available cards. Naruto Shippuden Deck-Building Game adds another important resource: Chakra, a new source of energy for your character and for many of the cards you play.
- Play as Naruto or one of his comrades.
- Build a deck with allies, equipment, abilities, and techniques.
- Use Power and Chakra while confronting Archenemies.
Your deck-building choices shape your approach to the adventure. You might focus on maximizing your Chakra points, or experiment with distinctive innovations such as positive attacks and cards that provide a bonus as soon as you buy them.
With its combination of recognizable characters, expanding card decks, resource decisions, and escalating threats, the game challenges you to prepare for each confrontation and defeat as many Archenemies as you can.
