Who it's for

Fans of the original who want tighter two-to-four-player games and enjoy hex-based tactical positioning.

Not for you if…

Avoid it if you're new to asymmetric war games entirely, or if you already own the original and don't crave a hex-grid rebuild with variable phases.

🦊

Vibe's take

Tactical and heavy – precise hex-by-hex maneuvering with a variable phase order that keeps even experienced players adapting.

About this game

This standalone second edition of Tsukuyumi: Full Moon Down rebuilds the original's post-apocalyptic faction war on a hexagon-based board with detailed miniatures, tightened for two to four players. The same five factions – soldiers, mutant boars, cybersamurai, insect swarms, and dragon knights – battle for territory around the fallen moon, now with closed drafting and variable phase order adding fresh tactical layers.
