The White Castle of Himeji: Matcha Expansion (EN)

Description

Immerse yourself in the Japanese tea ceremony with this expansion to Himeji White Castle!

The White Castle of Himeji: Matcha is a deepening expansion to the popular board game The White Castle of Himeji. This expansion revolves around influence, tradition, and the art of the Japanese tea ceremony. Influence the powerful figures of the court and increase your prestige by strategically using geishas and tea whisks (chasen). Matcha introduces a new location, new clan members, and an additional action per round, offering an even deeper and more balanced gaming experience!

The White Castle of Himeji is perfect for strategic thinkers and fans of Japanese culture. This expansion adds depth through new challenges and tactical possibilities. The addition of an extra action gives players more scope to develop a sound strategy, making Matcha a must-have for fans of the original.

Add the green bridge and dice during standard setup. Throughout the game, use chasen to move your geishas to strategic locations in the tea garden or tea room and perform actions on ceremony tiles to gain additional benefits. Each player also receives one extra action during their turn. After a number of turns, the remaining bonuses and geishas are activated for additional bonuses, and after three rounds, players receive points based on their influence in the tea room, ceremony tiles, geisha positions, and remaining resources. As in the original, the player with the most points wins.
