Description
Yōkaï no Mori is a fun and strategic board game designed for two players. With easy-to-learn rules and a short playtime of just 15 minutes, it's perfect for introducing new players to the world of Shogi. The game features a unique cast of characters, including the kodama, tanuki, kitsune, and koropokkuru, each with its own special movements and abilities.

With its simple yet engaging gameplay, Yōkaï no Mori is a great way to learn important concepts in Shogi, such as handling generals and promoting pawns. Developed by the Japan Shogi Association, this game is an excellent introduction to the world of abstract strategy and Shogi, making it a great choice for children and new players alike.
