Compress

An endless stream of 1s and 0s. If you can’t reproduce the sequence correctly, you won’t make it. But then you realize...it’s not about memorizing them, it’s about keeping track. All you have at your disposal are the 8 cards in your hand. How can you use them to retain as much information as possible? Instead of relying on your memory, arrange your cards and keep track of the sequence through logic. This is not a "memorization" game...it’s a "recordkeeping" game!

Each round, you’ll take a peek at your single card and decide how much risk you can stomach. Swap it out for a new card? Change the communal Kobayakawa to search for a better chance at winning? Or play it straight and hope everyone else folds first? A single point can tip the entire balance...and having a strong poker face doesn't hurt either.

Created by Jun Sasaki (Deep Sea Adventure, A Fake Artist Goes to New York), this new and expanded edition of Kobayakawa offers fast gameplay packed with daring bluffs and dramatic reveals. Whether you’re pushing your luck or pulling back at the perfect moment, every decision feels decisive. Kobayakawa has been a fan-favorite Oink Games title for more than a decade, and this new edition finally makes it possible to bring the game to retail in the U.S. for the first time.

So, will you enter the battle?
