About the game
Centuries ago, the deities made emerged from the depths of marines on the Island of Challenge. Together with her, there arose in the world people capable of using the power of the gems, allowing them to express their full potential. Today, the deities have chosen this island as the battlefield to find the person worthy of wearing the Tanxi, a mysterious stone that grants unmatched power. The confrontation will be to the death! Tanxi is a Battle Royale-type game where each player will control a character who seeks to be the last person alive on the island to obtain the Tanxi. In each turn, you can use your character's action points to move around the island, get new cards, get benefits from the town, or fight with other characters. In addition, you can equip helmets, boots, rings, weapons, or other items to improve your statistics. If you die, you must spend one turn outside before returning to the game. But beware! Round by round the mist will make the island smaller and different deities will wake up furious. The game will end when there is only one character alive on the island. -description from publisher

Some setups, rules and scoring details may still vary by player count, so check your edition’s rulebook for the exact configuration.
The listed playing time for Tanxi is 60–80 minutes. This is the publisher’s estimate for a full game.

Setup and teaching time are not included in this estimate.
The catalogue lists Tanxi for ages 10 and up. This is the publisher’s recommendation and reflects reading demands, rule complexity and small components rather than theme alone.
