PIATNIK Meister Makatsu board game

Meister Makatsu is a themed board game built around a ninja training challenge. Players send their best ninjas from rival dojos to face the legendary master Makatsu, who notices even the smallest slip, over a three-day series of tests. The aim is to complete each task with as few mistakes as possible. The game is designed for indoor use and recommended for children aged 8 to 10. It weighs 350 g and the language is German.

The story follows the dojos, which each year present their finest ninjas for evaluation. The trials are spread across three days and call for concentration, dexterity and a steady hand under pressure. This structure creates tense and often amusing moments as everyone tries to deliver their best performance.

Because the challenge is split into several rounds of different tests, the game stays varied from start to finish. The dojo setting makes it easy to get into the atmosphere and gives players plenty of shared stories to talk about during a game night.
