SCOUT! is a masterpiece board game by Kei Kajino. It was sold out at the Game Market when it was released, and has a high rating of 7.3 on Board Game Geek (as of 2021/9). Will you play your cards, or pull them out? With the restriction of not being able to reorder your hand, play cards and scout the field to connect and strengthen the numbers in your hand.

With the addition of just one extra person you may set off an incredible chain reaction that helps you create a show that no other circus will be able to surpass. Will you battle with your current members? Or, will you wait and try to recruit others? When you get into the groove, this speedy card game will have you feeling like you're on fire!  ※This product is for sale outside Japan only.
