Leave no stone unturned! Nine mystical tiles lie before you in a grid of rocky ruins. Rearrange the tiles to match one or more of the patterns in your hand. The catch is that you must sacrifice a card every time you swap or flip a tile. Carve out the most points in Shifting Stones, and your victory will be set in stone!

On your turn, you can do any of the following actions (as long as you have enough cards to pay for them):

• Shift stones (swap the positions of two stones)
  
• Flip stones (turn a stone to its opposite side that contains a different pattern)
  
• Score a card (reveal a pattern card from your hand that matches the current layout)
  
• Skip your turn (draw 2 additional cards for your next turn)
  

When you end your turn, draw back up to 4 cards.

The central tension in the game comes from figuring out when to execute your best set of moves. Do you have enough cards to pull off all your scoring in one turn, or has the grid moved too far from where you needed it?

Welcome back to Hanamikoji! In Hanamikoji: Geisha's Road, a 30-minute two-player, competitive strategy game full of implicit intentions, veiled messages, and hidden actions, players represent rival but friendly patrons supporting Yoko, Tomoyo, and others along their journey from apprentice (maiko) to full geisha (artist) and perhaps even the owner (okaasan) of their own establishment.

To do so, players help their favored geisha advance and build prestige through performing their art at different teahouses. Geisha start as apprentices (maiko) but become full geisha and score prestige points after accruing the necessary patronage to return to their original teahouse (ochaya) for the graduation ceremony (erikae). Some geisha may continue their path further and eventually inherit the teahouse (upon a second return) to become the new okaasan, recognized with more prestige points.



At the end of the game, the player who provides the most support to each geisha is recognized. The player who has supported the most prestigious group of geisha wins the game.
