Description

Onitama: Light and Shadow is a thrilling expansion that breathes new life into the classic game of martial tactics. Released in 2022, this expansion introduces a sneaky new pawn, the Ninja, which moves secretly and strikes without warning. This addition shakes up the traditional gameplay, making each match a fresh and exciting challenge. In Onitama: Light and Shadow, you can play in one of two ways: Way of the Shadow, where both players wield a Ninja, or Way of the Light, where a solo Ninja faces off against a traditional Onitama Master and Students. With easy-to-learn rules and a playtime of just 15 to 20 minutes, this expansion is perfect for quick and intense strategy sessions with a friend. Whether you're a seasoned Onitama player or new to the series, Light and Shadow offers a fun and unpredictable twist on the original game.
