Tokaido DUO - DT Preview with Mark Streed

This is a Dice Tower Paid Preview.

Mark takes a look at "Tokaido DUO".

After Journeying the Tokaido road, it is now time to discover the island of Shikoku in Tokaido Duo! In Tokaido Duo, two players pace the smallest isle of the Japanese archipelago. You will discover its many sceneries through the eyes of three different characters, and will thus experience a threefold spiritual journey. - As the Pilgrim, you will visit temples, forests, seashores and hot springs. - As the merchant, you will craft and sell handmade wares. - As the artist, you will paint a variety of beautiful sceneries, and gift them to passers-by. You will earn points through all three characters' adventures as you slowly become one with their endeavours.

I am always impressed by Mark's reviews. They always make me want to try a game at least once even if it is not the type that I enjoy.

I like how they reimagined the themes from OG Tokaido into a 2P experience, instead of just reworking the mechanism! Thanks for the preview, DiceTower squad

I would be more interested if it wasn't Funforge developing this.

I have to assume this is going straight to retail. There is no way this will fund on KS given their current situation.

I'm a little disappointed that DT reviewed this - even tho it was a paid review. FunForge screwed over 3000+ backers on Namiji alone and 4203 backers on the Monumental reprint campaign. That's over 7000 backers and DT is still considering reviewing their games. Be Better DT. The money paid for this review is nothing compared the the PR of being okay to promote (as that's what a PAID PROMOTION is) a company that screwed over 7000 people in the hobby.

Glad to see Funforge has enough money to pay previewers like Rahdo and DT, but not enough to ship games to SO MANY people who gave them money.

A little surprised Dice Tower was ok with this, really surprised Rahdo was with his vocality.

If this takes place in Shikoku, the name Tokaido Duo makes zero sense.

This looks a lot better than the original tokaido in my opinion
