What is "Hanafuda"?
Hanafuda is a traditional Japanese card game played with a deck of 48 cards, divided into 12 suits, each representing a month of the year with images related to nature. The goal of the game can vary depending on the version being played, but generally, players aim to collect sets of cards with matching images or points. Players take turns drawing and playing cards, trying to form combinations such as pairs or sequences. One of the most popular versions of the game, Koi-Koi, allows players to earn points by completing sets and giving them the option to continue playing for more points or "calling Koi-Koi" to end the round. Hanafuda is a game of strategy and memory, requiring players to remember the cards in play and plan their moves carefully.
