Ninjago: The Board Game

Players work together as ninjas to find four golden weapons hidden in their fortress while defending it from skeleton guards and a skeleton general. On each turn, a spinner determines whether a ninja moves and searches guardhouses, fights a guard, or swings by rope to another space while the general advances down the temple steps. If the general reaches the bottom, he steals a weapon and returns to the top. The group loses if he arrives before any weapons are claimed. Once all weapons are found or captured, a final spinner battle determines their fate, with optional rules adding memory elements and adjusting the difficulty.
