Description
In Bitoku, the players take on the roles of Bitoku spirits of the forest in their path towards transcendence, with the goal of elevating themselves and becoming the next great spirit of the forest. To do so, they will have the help of the yōkai, the kodamas and the different pilgrims that accompany them on their path. This is a hand-management, engine-building game with multiple paths to victory. Players will have yōkai represented by the cards that make up their hand, which must be placed in the right places at the right times in order to obtain the maximum benefit from the abilities they offer. Furthermore, during the game players can earn more yōkai cards for their deck, thereby increasing their playing options and achieving a higher score. Each player also has three yōkai guardians (in the form of dice) that they can send to the large regions of the forest on the main board in order to obtain all kinds of new options that they can play during the game. These options can be structures they build in certain areas of the forest, soul crystals that generate resources when certain actions are carried out, and many others as well. The players also have the chance to help the mitamas, lost souls in search of redemption by using the chinkon fireflies. There is truly a wide range of actions to carry out, and this is without taking into account the personal domain where the players can lay out another layer of additional strategy while managing the pilgrims. Pilgrims are followers of the player who embark upon journeys of contemplation and reflection who then share the experiences and learning they can along the spirit path with the Bitoku.

It's an excellent game and the studio ghibli-japanese folklore game I've been looking for. It's full of color and foklore items/creatures with a stong euro game structure that is very satisfying with the normal indirect blocking element for player interaction without it being hateful because you usually too busy trying to make your turn as efficient as possible. Absolutely loved it and the production is amazing.
Absolutely loved this game. The first round was taxing while we figured out the game, but once we did it was extremely interesting and rewarding. Numerous strategic paths one can take although we will have to play more to see how well it all works. Artwork is gorgeous. I do have one complaint however. There are a few colours used to differentiate pieces that have implications for certain strategic paths that i could not tell apart, and some important information is very small.
Quizás por la temática soy algo imparcial pero este juego me parece el mejor de Germán Millán. Combina profundidad estratégica, una producción espectacular y mecánicas bien integradas. Su única pega es que la primera partida puede ser abrumadora, pero una vez superada, brilla con luz propia.
A polar opposite of Barrage in many ways, and one of my favorite euros. It's such an open and generous game, giving you the resources and time to explore all of its avenues at your own leisure, while still providing an excellent and brain bending puzzle to solve. Be warned, though. This is quite a beast to teach, and fitting it all on one table is more difficult than you might think.
I have this game for over 4 years - it's a joy to play every time. Nowadays with Resutoran included to get a bit more variety on setup. Loving the components, the art and the flow of it. Simple mechanisms, good agency over scoring strategies makes this a mainstay in my collection.
