ThemeCreating a traditional Japanese doll platform
Prepare the new palace, making a tiered “Hina display” consisting of 14 seats. Position the Shiba dogs in their appropriate places to ensure the perfection of the role and color schemes of each tier. The challenge lies in how to arrange them within the limited number of seats to make the most ornate Hina display and win! 2 draw decks of Shiba dog doll cards are placed face up with 3-5 cards placed between them. These cards are available to draft, and every round the lead player determines if drafting will occur by color or by role. From the player to the left of the lead, players must take all cards of 1 type corresponding to the determined draft rule. Dolls have correct placement based on their roles, but objectives may prioritize color and icons as well. After 1 player fills their mat, points are scored based on placement, correct placement, and objectives.
