HOW TO PLAY ｜ MESOTES - JP

Game Objective

"MESOTES" is a mind-reading game where you predict which way the scale will tip and choose your weights accordingly. Weights are placed face-down on the field. You can roughly judge their size from the back, but you won't know whether they'll tip the scale positive or negative. Read your opponent's intentions and choose your move wisely. Once all weights have been chosen, it's time for the reveal. The scale begins to move, and the size of each weight becomes your score directly. However, if the scale exceeds ±15, it collapses — and no points are awarded. Read the balance carefully, swing the scale boldly, and the player who earns the most points wins.
