On September 1, 2024, the Martial Arts History Museum in Glendale, CA, announced a collaboration with Moon Rock Games to launch a new tabletop game titled 'Samurai Brothers: Escape from Exile.' This game is set to be introduced through a Kickstarter campaign starting on September 10, 2024. The museum encourages supporters to sign up early to receive notifications about the campaign's launch. 'Escaping from Exile' is designed to immerse players in the samurai era, combining strategic gameplay with rich historical lore. Players will navigate through Exile Island, assembling a team that includes a wise sensei, a brave guard, and a precious heirloom to achieve victory. The game promises to deliver a fast-paced and adventurous experience, appealing to both tabletop gaming enthusiasts and those interested in martial arts history. The partnership aims to provide a fresh and engaging experience that resonates with themes of discipline, strategy, and honor, which are central to the samurai culture. The Martial Arts History Museum is proud to support this innovative project, which not only entertains but also educates players about the samurai's rich heritage. Additionally, the collaboration has a philanthropic aspect, as five percent of the gross sales from the Kickstarter campaign will be donated to the Martial Arts History Museum. This initiative not only supports the museum's mission but also fosters a sense of community among supporters of martial arts and tabletop gaming.
