Onitama

Oyun kalitesi mükemmel Çok güzel bir oyun

Onitama es probablemente de los mejor juegos para dos personas que mantiene cierta sensación a ajedrez. A diferencia del ajedrez, no hay una comunidad de miles de personas que han llevado el juego a tal punto que debes saber ajedrez si quieres jugar con personas que saben ajedrez. tomando la misma comparación, el juego se explica en menos de un par de minutos y cada juego hace que las piezas se muevan diferente, por lo que no es posible memorizar estrategias, dandole ventajas a personas que ya han jugado. Hablando de los componentes, el game mat es de calidad y también las piezas, al igual que la caja. Lo único malo es que como cualquier juego exclusivamente de dos personas, puede que sea dificil encontrar una situación en la que solo sean dos jugadores. Se lo recomiendo a aquellas personas que les gustaría jugar un ajedrez menos serio y divertido

I really like this game. I actually enjoy the mousepad board as it makes the whole thing compact enough to throw in a bag and play anywhere, in fact, I recently took it to a bar for drinks with a friend and had a good time with Onitama and a pitcher. Everything fits very nicely in the box, there and aren't many components to keep track of. I highly recommend this as a travel friendly game. Games are fast to set up and tear down, an actual game doesn't need to take very long at all to finish especially if you impose some kind of time limit per turn (or just have your opponent pestering you whenever you spend too much time staring blankly between your cards, their cards and the board). The rules are so simple that without any prior knowledge of how it works, you'll pretty much "get" how the whole thing works in a matter of minutes, yet, if you allow for it, there is some very deep strategy involved and very very little luck. The rules are so elegant and straight forward I am thinking of teaching the game to my 6 year old. While I don't think he'll be able to fully grasp the concepts of thinking 6 steps ahead in the card rotation to try to envision how the board will play out depending on how you choose to move (and therefore, what options you'll be giving your opponent as a result of your move), it's really not even needed to simply play your turn and hope for the best. The only thing I can think to complain about is that the mousepad type board does suffer from some light curling when you unroll it and doesn't always sit completely flat though it does eventually loosen up and doesn't really affect the game at all.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A Brilliant Blend of Strategy and Simplicity Onitama is one of those rare games that feels like it’s been around for centuries—even though it’s modern. After plenty of plays, I can confidently say this is a masterpiece of elegant design. The rules are incredibly simple (you can teach it in under 5 minutes), but don’t let that fool you—this game has serious depth. Every move matters. The rotating movement cards create a constantly shifting puzzle where you're not just thinking about your next move, but also what options you're handing your opponent. It’s like chess distilled into something faster, sharper, and more dynamic. What really sets Onitama apart is how accessible it is. Whether you're playing with someone who’s brand new to board games or a seasoned strategist, it hits that sweet spot. Games are quick (usually 10–15 minutes), which makes it perfect for rematches… and trust me, you’ll want them. The components are also beautiful. The minimalist board, smooth pieces, and clean card design give it a calm, almost meditative vibe—until you realize you’ve just walked into a trap three moves ago. Pros: - Easy to learn, hard to master - Quick gameplay with tons of replayability - Perfect for 2 players - Gorgeous, minimalist design Cons: - Only plays 2 (though expansions exist) - Can lead to intense “just one more game” loops If you enjoy abstract strategy games or want something that captures the spirit of chess without the time commitment, Onitama is an absolute must-have. It’s the kind of game that earns a permanent spot on your shelf—and your table. Highly recommended.

The play pieces and play mat feel very sturdy and luxurious. The game itself is a lot like chess -- but simple enough that others can enjoy it too! Quite enjoyable for those who like abstract strategy games.
