Tanuki is a fast-paced card game where players compete to grow the most productive bamboo garden. During their turn, players play Action or Character cards, apply the cards’ effects and harvest bamboo from their gardens. Each Character card in the garden has its own unique abilities.
The game finishes once the harvest season has come to an end. The player with the most bamboo wins. Strategic decision-making and interaction between players are key elements of this game.
The legendary tanukis, also known as the Japanese raccoon dog, are reputed to be mischievous and jolly masters of disguise within Japanese folklore.
