Roll dice for sushi and fishbones, then steal tiles from other players with chopsticks.
Sushizock im Gockelwok is a Zoch dice game in the small square box line and a spiritual follow-up to Pickomino. You roll five dice and try to collect sushi and fishbone tiles from the middle of the table, with the tile you get depending on how many you rolled. Sushi tiles are worth plus one to plus six points, fishbones cost minus one to minus four, so the pile at the end is a mix of treats and penalties. The twist is theft: roll three or more chopsticks in the right color and you can lift the top tile from someone else's stack. With four or five chopsticks you can name the tile you want, though you aren't allowed to look first. A 2008 push-your-luck game, twenty minutes.
Who it's for
You enjoy Pickomino and want a similar dice gamble where you can also steal from your friends.
Not for you ifβ¦
You dislike luck-heavy games or being robbed at the last moment.
Vibe's take
Snappy and cheeky. You gamble on each roll and then spend the next one trying to pinch someone's good tile, so everything on the table is up for grabs.
