Yokai Pagoda

A mysterious building rise over the hill, bathed with a crepuscular light. Astonished by the strange aura of the Pagoda, you decide to investigate it. Suddenly, a laugh, a shadow which is not yours and an eye with ominous pretensions turns alive. You have broken the peace of ten powerful Japanese spirits (called Yokai) who rested there! Will you find a way to calm their wrath?

What is Yokai Pagoda

A game of Yokai Pagoda is played through 3 rounds, playing always one card per turn, until someone ends the current round. To play a game, you shuffle the 100 number cards (divided by 10 kinds of Yokai, numbered from 1 to 10), lay out two cards face-up to start the two discard piles, then deal seven cards to each player. Place the rest as the Pagoda deck, between the discard piles.

Juego con mucho pique y harás una partida detrás de otra. Como cualquier filler puede acabar quemándose. Hecho en falta una pequeña explicación temática de los yokais.
