GAME mechanics

  • Collecting Sets: This mechanic requires players to gather specific cards or pieces to form predefined sets. Each complete set grants points or special abilities, encouraging players to plan their moves to collect the necessary items. Strategy involves knowing when to focus on collecting specific sets and when to block opponents.
  • Hand Management: Players must manage the number and type of cards or pieces in their hand. Making decisions about which cards to play, which to discard and when to use special abilities is crucial. Success depends on the balance between keeping options available and executing decisive actions to achieve the game's objectives.
  • Real time: Unlike turn-based games, decisions in Toru can take place simultaneously. Players must think and act quickly, reacting to the actions of others and changes in the game state. This adds a layer of pressure and requires quick reflexes, as well as rapid strategy adjustments to take advantage of opportunities or mitigate risks.
