Let's Catch the Lion(A new shogi variant without Kanji pieces)

[takodori]

Hello shogi fans,

I found a video review about "Let's Catch the Lion(Dobutsu Shogi,
Animal Shogi)
which is a new shogi variant without Kanji pieces. I heard it'll be
demonstrated
in the Essen Spiele in Germany to be held on October 22-25.

Hi,
I've just called them.
The clerk told me, her boss is not yet back from his business trip to
Essen game fair.
At this time, they couldn't tell me if there are some sets to be sold,
not to mention a price.

Given that, I will call them some days later again.

best regards
Marc, shogi.de
