Way of the Samurai

Play as the legendary swordsman and enact fast, tactical duels through a solo card-driven system. Each game runs several rounds; each round the player performs two attacks, and each attack consists of a sequence of three action cards that grant strength, technique or guard. Players build a personal deck, manage Ki tokens to develop skills, and arrange card sequences to create combos and unlock special actions. Opponents vary in behaviour and difficulty, and an extended competition mode challenges the player to face many samurai in a single run. Plays in about 20 minutes with quick setup and no text on cards.
