About this board game

Hanamikoji is a two-player board game released in 2013, with each contest taking about 15 minutes. Set on the famed Geisha street in the old capital, it challenges opponents to compete for the favor of seven illustrious Geishas.

Geishas are elegant and graceful women renowned for their skills in art, music, dance, and performances and ceremonies. In the game, each Geisha has a preferred performance item, giving both players a clear objective as they try to earn her favor.

Success depends on more than simply collecting items. With careful speculation and a few bold moves, you must judge your opponent’s intentions while pursuing the Geishas you want to impress. Every decision contributes to the contest between you and your rival.
