TL; DR- Quick family fun. 90%
Basics-Hungry for some more quick sushi games? Sushi Go! is a simple family card game that follows many of the same drafting mechanics popular in 7 Wonders and Among the Stars. Players start with a hand of cards and choose a card. All players reveal their chosen cards simultaneously. Some cards are instant point cards like nigiri cards. Other cards are worth more as you gain more of the same card like dumplings. Yet others need a specific number of cards of one type to get any points like tempura where every two score points. And some are worth more depending who has the most of them at the end of the game. There are also wasabi that multiply other cards, and the chopsticks card. If players have a chopstick card, they can shout "Sushi Go!" and take a second card from the same hand of cards. After selecting your card for the round, you pass the cards to the left. When you only have two cards, you choose one card, and then throw the other into the center. After three total hands like this, players determine who has the most points and is the winner.
Mechanics- I like a good drafting game. This one plays quick and teaches even quicker. My sister who can't read scored as many points as I did while my mom scored the least points. It's a blast to play and won't require encyclopedic knowledge of some obscure rules. 5/5
Theme- Here is where the game suffers. I don't get the feeling I get from Wasabi of being a chef. This game has cute sushi, but beyond the box and the art, there isn't really a story here. If story doesn't matter to you, then this game is great. 3/5
Instructions- The instructions are a single booklet that's less than ten pages. It doesn't take much to learn and play this game. 5/5
Execution- The cards are decent quality and the whole game comes is a metal tin. The art is great and all cutesy. And for less than 15 bucks? Well worth the price of admission. 5/5
Summary- This game has the family board game awards all wrapped up, and I can see why. It's cheap, easy to play, and doesn't require a ton of priming to get into. It's a great intro board game that doesn't break the bank and travels well too. 90%

Buy the deluxe version, instead. Also, tins are horrible! Get a deck box.
I got this game knowing that the Party version is better, but the base game was a third of the price of the Party version, so I wanted to give it a try. I also wanted it because the tin is far smaller than the Party version and I had planned on keeping the cute little Sushi Go! tin when I first ordered it.I've changed my mind, and I'll tell you why: the Sushi Go! tin came pretty badly smashed in the corner, as shown in my pictures. Mine does still close, but it looks horrendous. I don't mean to sound terse, but putting games in tins is not a good idea in general, especially if you're going to use a bubble mailer to ship them.Also, a few of my cards were damaged on a middle edge of the card. Weird defect, but I'm happy that they are not horribly marked (I barely noticed it while playing solo). Also, a lot of them have an arched curve to them. It's hard to see in the picture, but you can tell when you hold them.Lastly, if you choose to sleeve the cards, they won't fit in the tin. This isn't a huge deal, as you can find a 100-card deck box for less than $10.00.The biggest issue with the tin in that it's bad for traveling; it can definitely be dented with force. One wrong move with your bag or purse and boom: ruined tin. Again, you could buy a deck box to fit yourcards in for cheap, yes, but I just wanted to point out that the tin that the game comes with isn't good for traveling. Looks cute on display, though! The sushi are embossed, and the illustration makes me happy to look at.To say something positive: the cards felt nice and thick, and the little illustrations and instruction manual are precious. This is also a simple and quick game, so I think kids and adults alike could have fun playing this together. If you just want to grab a little thing to put in your car or something, maybe this is for you. If you want a better game for a home family game night, get the deluxe version.
