This is Game Theory — Yedo: The Deluxe Master Set

What is Yedo?
• Worker placement game set in feudal Japan (circa 1605)
• Control a clan seeking influence in the city of Yedo (modern Tokyo)
• Complete missions to earn prestige and win the game

Core Mechanisms
• Worker placement with disciples as your agents
• Auction phase for action cards, weapons, and resources
• Watch Patrol system adds risk management
• Trading phase for resource negotiation
• Mission completion for prestige points

The Watch Patrol
• Patrols move around the city each round
• Disciples caught get arrested unless bribed or blackmailed
• Forces strategic planning and timing decisions

Strategic Considerations
• Mission planning: Align resources with available missions
• Auction strategy: Balance early investment vs. later worker actions
• Worker management: Risk vs. reward in district placement
• Adaptability: Event cards and opponent actions require flexibility

The Deluxe Master Set
• Clan powers for unique abilities
• Specialists with special skills
• Teahouse module for hiring characters
• Enhanced replayability and customization

Why Yedo Stands Out
• Thematic integration with feudal Japan setting
• Combines worker placement, auctions, and negotiation
• Strategic depth with player interaction
• Perfect for Euro game enthusiasts
