The fan favorite trick-taking game is back with a smaller footprint and an official inclusion of 2-player mode! A 2 to 4 player trick-taking game about capturing Yokai, spirits that appear in Japanese folklore.

In Yokai Septet, your goal is to capture high scoring Boss Yokai by strategically playing cards from your hand. Each turn (called a “trick”), players play a card from their hand following the rules of the “trick-taking games.” What this means is that the first player of each turn can play any card from their hand. Remaining players in clockwise order must play a card of the same suit as the first player. If they don’t have a card of the same suit, then they get to play any card from their hand.

After everyone has played a card, the player who played the strongest card matching the suit of the first player’s card takes all the cards played this turn. A new turn continues until one of the round’s end condition is met. At the end of the round, the winner of that round is determined. The winner of the round scores points based on the Boss Yokai they captured. New rounds are played until the game’s end condition is met, which can be either 2 points for a basic game or 7 points for an advanced game.

When playing with 4 players, the game is played in 2 vs 2 partnership. When playing with 3-players, the game becomes a free-for-all, and with 2-players, it is a 1 vs 1 heads on battle!
