Introduction: An Elegant and Simple Expansion for Onitama. Once again, rival schools have come to Onitama to see who has the dominant Art. But something is different this time: their activity has attracted the attention of a Wind Spirit! This indomitable force will interfere with the students, but it may grant an unforeseen benefit as well... Note: Onitama base game required to play this expansion. |
Features: Onitama: Way of the Wind introduces a new neutral piece that can be moved by both players! The wind spirit is an impassable object, neither students nor masters may move into a space occupied by it. Also, if the wind spirit lands on a student pawn, it does not capture it, instead, it swaps places with the student! This new layer of complexity, along with the wind spirit cards that allow you to move your master or student pawn according to the grid on the top of the card, then move the wind spirit according to the bottom grid, is sure to test your wits and prove definitively which master’s Art is superior. Multiple Paths to Victory: There are two methods to achieve victory in Onitama. The first is to capture your opponent’s Master, by landing on it with any of your pieces. The second is to move your Master across the board into your opponent’s Temple Arch space. The Move Cards: In Onitama, the deck of move cards is shuffled, and two cards are dealt to each player face-up. A 5th card is also placed face-up, to the side of the board. When it is your turn, you may choose to move one of your pieces using one of your cards. The Move Cards Pass Between Players: After you move one of your pieces with one of your cards, the card you use will be exchanged with the 5th card to the side of the board. This means your opponent will have access to that move, after their next! Countless Card Combinations: Every game of Onitama utilizes only 5 cards from the 16 card deck, providing an incredible amount of variety and replay value.
