Yut

Ludos Asia is the first volume from Lemery Games, containing four traditional games from, as you might expect, Asia. The four games are kept together in a very nice and sturdy box, and slide in and out of the box as required. 


Yut (or Niyout) is a race game from Korea, possibly going back a few thousand years. Each player has three pieces to get home, and movement is determined by dice throws. As such, game play is a mixture of chance and strategy.

The game comes in its own small box.


Open that box and you find a small pouch which contains all you need to play the game.


The board is a colourful cloth board ... 


... and the pieces and semi-circular stick dice are made of wood.

My first impression of these games from Lemery Games was spot on: they look gorgeous, lots of attention to detail, and, generally, a really high production quality. The other volumes, Africa and America, will definitely be added to the collection!
