SHI-SHI-TOW logoSHI-SHI-TOWBoard game IP

A two-player, perfect-information 3D strategy game on a 6×6 board. Players place stones and build towers through two patterns: REN, four stones in a line, and JIN, a surrounding formation. Each lion piece always stands on its player's tallest tower. You do not win by capturing the other lion. You win by building higher. The theme draws on lion culture across Asia, including the shishimai lion dance, komainu guardian lions and Okinawa's shisa.
