Description

Immerse yourself in an ancient Japanese setting and discover Onitama, an exciting, fast-paced strategy game! Onitama is somewhat reminiscent of chess and rather addictive with its dynamic game mechanic in which warriors face off so their master may win the game. Concentration and luck are the only weapons you'll have at your disposal! You'll need to fully master mind and body to defeat your opponents. THINK STRATEGY! Every opponent has four warriors and one elder at their disposal. The objective is simple: win the battle. To do so, you must either capture your opponent's elder or take their place in the temple arch. The game is easy to play, but you'll need time to become a true master. Although, not really... Onitama is the ideal strategy game for exercising your mind, as you'll have to think ahead about moves! The moves you're allowed to make are determined by five cards which are drawn at random, shown face-up, and shared between players. Each card corresponds to an animal and sets out a specific move that you have to follow. When you play a card, you must place it between you and your opponent and pick up the previously played card, and so on. This way, both players have the exact same chance of winning the game. IT'S ALL ABOUT ANALYSIS… The key to success in this simple, elegant type of combat is to stay calm and concentrate. The Shrine of Onitama is a sacred ground where foresight is necessary. Animal spirits will guide you on the perilous path and allow you to gain true wisdom. In short, it's an elegant and simple game that captures the essence of martial arts. The game design and calligraphy will make your gaming experience a unique and unforgettable one. PLAY ON YOUR OWN OR WITH OTHERS Play against the computer on your own, or against your friends.

  • A quick, but rewarding game

    I wish there were more players on this app. It’s a quick but rewarding game that makes you think on multiple levels and where you can use a number of different types of strategy and meta strategy in gameplay.
  • Fantastic Adaptation

    This game is a fantastic adaptation of a great abstract strategy game. The only thing keeping it from being a 5 star product is that the AI needs to have higher difficulty levels and they need to make the way of the wind expansion purchasable.
  • Logs me out makes it hard to log in

    Onitama is an amazing game. This app? Remedial. It has logged me out twice. The first time it wouldn’t accept my log in info, but miraculously logged me in after I restarted the app. The second time i had no such luck. I get an email to reset, i reset, and it still doesn’t work. Turns out, my username has been changed to something random.... so i put in the random numbers they sent for my username and it logs me in. Only problem is, instead of my name, my username is now Player2791918483201992 or whatever. I hate it. Contacting customer service through the app does NOT WORK. I requested service through the app store. Hopefully that works and ill update my review.
  • Awesome. With 2 wishes...

    I love the game. Play it on and offline. My wish is that the AI was more consistently challenging. I also wish more people played online. Without both it get’s a little repetitive and doesn’t help you get better.
  • Almost Perfrct

    Something’s missing, love the game but still feel like there’s something that could be added. Thank you Developers for making this a free game to play!

    This simulates the board game perfectly. Matchmaking is quite good as well. Currently there are not enough active players online. The chat and game badges feel a bit intrusive during a game. However this is a solid game with no ads.
  • Great game!

    This game is amazing. Beautiful made! It’s also great practice for when I play the real thing with friends.
  • Onitama is a delightful game!

    Strategic thinking and planning are required but with small number of pieces and five sets of possible moves in each game. You don’t have to spread yourself too thin trying to anticipate thousands possible moves from your adversary like you do in Chess. If I had to describe this game, I’d say is like a filtered, synthesized version of Chess. Sergio Rivera. Chicago.
  • Good. Could be harder.

    I really like this game. The AI should have harder levels.
