Start a new playDescription
Set during the Edo Period of Japan, play as a daimyo - or feudal lord - overseeing a personal province board that begins as a wild, old growth forest. Over the course of five rounds, each player will determine the path of their own province by simultaneously placing skilled forestry samurai workers at key intersections to perform actions. These decisions could include the harvesting of trees to construct farms and castles, the planting and study of trees for future knowledge, establishing a new agricultural presence to sustain the region’s population, the building of castle structures for both immediate rewards and eventual honor, or even mustering a military force to help support the efforts of the Shogun in Edo.
While tending to their province, players must also forecast, consider, and prepare for the ever-changing weather of Japan, with rain having both positive growth and negative flooding effects on their own land. The deck of weather cards is constantly changing focus on forest regions, and it is up to each daimyo to consider the importance in forecasting and preparing for the weather. If ignored, excessive rains in regions caught unaware could turn into a cascade of destructive flooding across your province!
