Onitama is a two-player strategy board game themed around ancient Japanese martial arts.

Inspired by ancient Japanese martial arts, Onitama is a two-player abstract strategy board game with a simple yet deep strategic element. Published by Arcane Wonders, the game is fully informative, with a play time of just 15 minutes, offering new strategic challenges with every play.

■Sophisticated game system

Onitama is a competitive game played on a 5x5 board. Each player begins the game with one Master piece and four Student pieces, which they place on their side of the court. There are two ways to win: by capturing the opponent's Master piece (the "Stone Path"), or by moving your Master piece to the opponent's Temple (the starting position of the Master piece) (the "Flow Path").

The game's most distinctive mechanism is the movement cards. At the start of the game, five of the 16 movement cards are randomly selected, two are dealt to each player, and the remaining one is set aside. Each card depicts a movement pattern that indicates how the piece can move. On their turn, a player chooses one of the two cards in their hand and moves their piece as shown on the card. The played card is exchanged for the card set aside, and the opponent can use that card on their next turn. This card circulation system creates constantly changing tactical situations, testing the player's ability to think ahead.

■High replayability with different developments each time

Because the move cards used in each game are different, strategies are always new, making the game highly replayable. Even against the same opponent, different combinations of cards can force you to devise completely different strategies, allowing you to enjoy the game with a fresh feeling no matter how many times you play.

The gameplay time is short, about 15 minutes, making it a casual and enjoyable game despite being a full-fledged strategy game. By playing multiple matches, you can enjoy the fun of reading your opponent's strategy and hiding your own hand.

■High-quality components

Onitama components are renowned for their high quality. The neoprene game mat is non-slip, and the pieces are stable and luxurious. The game mat rolls up for easy storage and portability. The storage box is also beautifully designed, with a unique shape and magnetic closure. The game includes:

• 2 master pieces
• 8 student pieces
• 16 movement cards
• 1 neoprene roll-up game mat
• Rulebook

■ Reasons why it is popular with a wide range of gamers

The rules are simple enough to learn in minutes, yet the depth of the strategy will satisfy even fans of traditional strategy games like chess and Xiangqi (Chinese chess). Onitama's compact size, short playtime, and deep strategic depth make it popular with a wide range of players, from casual board game players to seasoned gamers.

Enjoy a battle of wits with Onitama, which perfectly combines simple rules, deep strategy, and beautiful components.
