Yashima: Legend of the Kami Masters

About this board game

Yashima: Legend of the Kami Masters is a card-driven miniatures game for 2–4 players, with battles lasting about 90 minutes. Players customize a chosen Kami master and engage in player-versus-player or team-versus-team combat.

In the world of Yashima, spirit protectors known as the Kami were once seen only by those who practiced Shinto. After a cataclysm nearly destroyed the world, survivors who could see and bond with the Kami formed powerful clans. Now, bonded fighters face one another in a renewed struggle for honor and domination.

Choose from four characters and four Kami, each with their own deck of cards. Interchangeable character and Kami cards create 16 playable combinations, letting players pair a fighter with a spirit protector before entering battle. Each character also includes a high-detail miniature.

• Characters: Rosamu the monk, Hikaru the priestess, Akikio the Fire Sorceresses, and Kenta the Ronin Warrior
• Kami: the Dragon, the Tiger, the Tortoise, and the Phoenix
• Combat: card-driven battles for individual or team play

A player’s life is determined by the Battle Deck. This deck helps players gain karma while also unleashing attacks against opponents, making it central to the flow of each confrontation.

Multiplayer battles do not eliminate players permanently. When a player reaches restoration, they continue the fight, and the last player to hit restoration wins the game. With its customizable pairings, distinctive Kami, and miniature-based combat, Yashima offers a focused battle for players seeking supernatural clan conflict.
