🎴 What is Hanafuda?

Hanafuda (花札) is a traditional Japanese playing card game derived from naipes, a type of card introduced from Portugal in the 1540s.

The deck consists of 12 suits representing the months from January to December, for a total of 48 cards.

Each month has four cards, divided into the following four categories:

• Bright (Hikari-fuda) — 20 points, 5 cards in total. The highest-scoring cards.

• Animal (Tane-fuda) — 10 points, 9 cards showing animals or objects.

• Ribbon (Tanzaku-fuda) — 5 points, 10 cards featuring poetic ribbons.

• Chaff (Kasu-fuda) — 1 point, 24 cards showing small background motifs.

Among the Ribbon cards:

• Those from January, February, and March are called Red Ribbons (Aka-tan) — red ribbons with writing.

• Those from June, September, and October are called Blue Ribbons (Ao-tan) — blue ribbons without text.

Hanafuda is also known as Hana-karuta or Hana-koppai (literally “flower cards”).

Interestingly, Nintendo, originally founded in 1889 as Nintendo Koppai, began as a Hanafuda card manufacturer —

a fascinating piece of history showing how deeply these traditional cards are woven into Japanese culture.

🎴 What is Koi-Koi?

Koi-Koi is a two-player duel that blends elements of poker and mahjong.

• The game begins with 8 face-up table cards and 8 cards dealt to each player.

• Players (dealer and opponent) take turns capturing cards from the table that match the same month.

• When a scoring hand is completed, you can either Finish (win) or declare “Koi-Koi” to continue the round.

• After declaring “Koi-Koi,” the round ends when a new hand is formed or when your opponent finishes first.

• Winning after declaring “Koi-Koi” doubles your score.

• However, if your opponent wins while you are in “Koi-Koi,” you lose all your points!

• In official matches, the winner is determined by the total score over 12 rounds.

• This game includes four match length options: Very Short (2 rounds), Short (4 rounds), Half (6 rounds), and Full (12 rounds).

The game offers more strategy than poker, but simpler mechanics than mahjong.
