Rival onmyoji compete to capture powerful yokai bosses and earn the glory of saving their village.

Gameplay

To win points, you play a card each turn—usually matching the lead suit—and the highest matching card takes the trick to capture yokai. Every hand is a tense read of what others can follow with and when to spend your strongest cards to secure boss captures.
