The Move CardsIn 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 PlayersAfter 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 CombinationsEvery game of Onitama utilizes only 5 cards from the 16 card deck, providing an incredible amount of variety and replay value. If you're looking for more, check out the Onitama Sensei's Path Expansion that includes an additional 16 unique, new cards! |
