Oink Games is releasing the digital and analog editions of its new board game Rafter Five simultaneously. The digital edition will be released as additional paid content in Let's Play! Oink Games on 12/7 (Thurs). The analog edition of the new board game Rafter Five will have an advanced release at Game Market Autumn 2023 at Tokyo Big Sight on 12/9-10. General sales in Japan will begin on 12/15 (Fri).

Rafter Five is a balance game, where you will use 5 differently shaped rafter pieces and expand your raft while also loading in treasure chests. If you cause 5 (3 in the digital edition) of the other player's treasure chests to fall into the sea you lose, but it's OK to drop your own treasure chests. Purposely placing your treasure chests in a dangerous location to put pressure on the other players is a perfectly valid strategy. By skillfully using the rafters and treasure chests, you can create a strangely balanced and surprisingly large raft! The raft will collapse in surprising places which makes for an exciting and suspenseful game.

Rafter Five is designed by Jun Sasaki, author of Deep Sea Adventure, In a Grove, and Startups, and Mashiu, author of Quickity Pickity, Building Swords As Soon As Possible, and Burger ASAP!. This game was co-created by these two game designers, and is Oink Games' first balance game.

You supported it ALL? 5 rafters are collecting planks of wood to make their raft bigger. Try your best to instruct them to load the cargo into the raft. But be careful, the balance of the raft extensions is important! If a person that is supporting the raft is moved, the raft will collapse all at once. Will you be able to skillfully build the raft and make it difficult for others to expand while also making sure you aren't the one to let it all fall apart? Will it collapse!? Will it hold!? Enjoy the strange balancing act in this brainy, balance game!

With its simple rules, it's great fun for players of any generation. There are also advanced rules where you must avoid the nails and joints shown on the lumber cards, as well as single-player rules that challenge you to see how many treasure chests you can place.

Oink Games' booth at Game Market Autumn 2023 will be in [Area A6], on December 9-10, 2023. We will be selling the game at a special price. You will also be able to try the game out, so please come and play.

You can also play online with your friends in the digital edition, available in Let's Play! Oink Games. For a limited time, the game will be 25% OFF from 12/7 (Thurs) 10:00AM to 12/13 (Wed) 11:59PM.
