Zhrnutie pravidiel
Objective
To work together as a team and gather the Yokai (four each of four suits: Foxes, River Children, Long-neck Women and Demons) by families.
Setup
The Yokai cards are shuffled and placed in a 4x4 grid. A stack of hint cards (7 for two players, 9 for three, 10 for four) is placed nearby.
Your Turn
You must do 3 actions in this order:
- Look at 2 cards, one by one. They don't have to be adjacent.
- Choose an uncovered Yokai card and move it. After the move, the 16 cards must still form a connected whole.
- Draw and reveal a hint card, or place a revealed hint card on a Yokai. A Yokai with a hint card is locked and cannot be looked at or moved.
End of Game
The game is ended when:
- Instead of doing any actions, a player declares the Yokai are gathered by families, or;
- All the hint cards are used.
Once the game is over, flip over all Yokai. If the Yokai are grouped by families, the players win. Otherwise they lose.
Scoring
Victories are scored by hint card usage:
- 1 point per correctly placed hint card
- -1 point per incorrectly placed hint card
- 2 points per revealed but unused hint card
- 5 points per unrevealed hint card
Total Rankings
- 0-10 points is an Honourable victory
- 11-14 points is a Glorious victory
- 15+ points is a Legendary victory
