Bonsai<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The Japanese term “bonsai” means “planted in a pot”. A bonsai is a living work of art, a perfect miniature of a plant, identical in every way to its full-size counterpart, but several times smaller.<\/p>\n

In Bonsai, players take on the role of specialist bonsai masters who intend to cultivate their own bonsai. Whoever grows the best plant will be appointed to present their bonsai in the imperial gardens.<\/p>\n

On your turn, choose and perform one of the following two actions: meditation or cultivation.
\nIf you meditate, choose one of the face-up cards on the board and take it, along with any bonsai tiles represented beneath the card you drew. If you cultivate, you may place into your Bonsai the tiles that are in your personal supply. You may place as many tiles as there are total symbols depicted on the Seishi tile and on any or all development cards. Each symbol allows you to place one tile of the corresponding type.<\/p>\n

During the round in which your bonsai matches or exceeds the requirements of a target tile that is still in the center of the table (i.e., the target tile has not yet been claimed by any player), you must immediately choose whether you want to claim that tile or whether you want to forgo it in order to try to achieve a more difficult Target tile.<\/p>\n

When the last card is revealed from the deck, the end of the game is triggered. Each tile in your bonsai is worth a specific number of points.<\/p>\n

In the solo game you can try the Additional Scenarios that change certain rules and objectives and ultimately try to defeat the Emperor's Challenge.<\/p>\n
