Description:
Onitama is a two-player abstract game with perfect information and a random setup. On a 5x5 board, each player starts with five pawns, including a main pawn in the center. Players use two open cards showing possible moves for any piece. A fifth card is neutral. On their turn, a player picks a card, moves a piece as shown, and swaps the used card with the neutral one. Capturing an opponent's pawn removes it. Winning requires capturing the opponent's main pawn or moving your main pawn to their starting space.
