ClaGla to Exhibit at the Dosan Board Game Market in Sapporo

The esteemed board game and puzzle manufacturer, ClaGla (株式会社クラグラ), is set to participate in the second edition of the Dosan Board Game Market. This exciting event is scheduled to take place on August 23, 2026, at the 4PLA 3F venue in Sapporo’s Odori Park. Designed to celebrate the unique charm of board games crafted in Hokkaido, the exhibition prioritizes playing over mere purchasing, allowing attendees to enjoy the games firsthand.

During this event, visitors will have the opportunity to directly interact with staff who will explain the rules and mechanics of the games, ensuring that everyone, including families, can engage and have fun. The last event attracted a significant crowd, and as a result, this edition has doubled its venue space to accommodate even more guests.

Featuring Exciting New Titles! “Gummy Chocolate Papaya Revolution”

Among the exciting games presented, “Gummy Chocolate Papaya Revolution”, released in May 2026, gained rave reviews at the Game Market Spring 2026 where players enjoyed trying it out. The game’s rules are simple yet engaging, based on a rock-paper-scissors mechanism known as “Stairs Rock-Paper-Scissors.” Players advance by winning rounds using different symbols: win with “Gummy (Rock)” to climb 2 steps, with “Chocolate (Scissors)” for 6 steps, or make a big leap of 22 steps using “Angry Panda’s Super Exciting Revolution (Paper).”

What makes this game especially enjoyable are the word cards featuring phrases like “Sushi” and “Thanksgiving,” creating amusing combinations that lead to laughter. This inventive twist on the classic rock-paper-scissors game promises strategic depth combined with humor.
