User summary Pacific Go is a game about the Pacific War. One player takes the role of the Japanese army, and the other is the Allied powers, and both struggle for their own forces' victory. The game is played in 10 rounds, playing time is about 90 - 120 minutes.

Both forces consume "Resource points (RP)", for both moving and attacking. The Japanese forces gain RP when they control certain resource production areas, whereas the Allies gain a fixed number of RP. The Japanese consume 1 RP per unit per area, whereas the Allies consume 1 RP per unit regardless of moved areas.

Some important areas have Victory Point values assigned. At the end of the game, the Allies win if they have gained enough VPs. Japan wins if they have successfully blocked the Allies from gaining VPs.

Publisher's summary 『PACIFIC GO』は、太平洋戦争を題材としたボードゲームです。一人は日本軍、もう一人は連合軍を担当して、自軍を勝利に導きます。 ゲームは全10ターンからなり、プレイタイムは90分から120分程度です。 両軍とも、移動と戦闘に「資源ポイント(RP)」を必要とします。日本軍は資源エリアを支配することで獲得し、連合軍は毎ターン規定数を獲得します。 日本軍は1ユニットが1エリア移動するたびに1RPを消費します。連合軍は何エリア移動しても1ユニットにつき1ポイントの消費です。 重要エリアにはVPが設定されていて、最終的に連合軍が規定数以上のVPを獲得していれば勝利。それを阻止すれば日本軍の勝利です。
