Kiri-ai: The Duel
Two Samurai face each other on the cliff’s edge.
Cloudy skies darken the night.
The moon breaks through as they strike.
A quick and strategic 2-player game where every move could lead to victory or death. Each player uses cards that represent movements, attacks, or special attacks to play out their strategy on the battlefield. Every turn place two cards face down and reveal them one at a time to position your samurai and swing with your katana. Perform two attacks to catch your opponent undefended while moving or dash in to deliver an unexpected slash!

Sammanfattning av regler
Overview
Play cards to move your Samurai and try to deal 2 damage to your opponent, whilst switching between the Heaven and Earth stances to your advantage
Turn
First, each player secretly picks a 1st and 2nd card
Then reveal both 1st cards and resolve them, before revealing both 2nd cards and resolving them
There are two possible stances: Heaven and Earth
Movement cards played during Heaven Stance are resolved first
Movement cards when in Earth Stance are resolved second
A Movement card cannot move one Samurai beyond another, it can still be played but it will at best move the Samurai so they are adjacent instead
Attack and Special cards are resolved last
If two successful attacks are played, they cancel each other out
If only one successful attack is played, it deals damage to the opponent who flips their card to the damaged side
After all cards are resolved, card 1 is returned to the hand, whilst card 2 is put aside. In a following round, the same will happen, but the set aside card will return to the hand when the new card 2 is set aside
Game End
The game ends when a player takes their 2nd damage, they are defeated and the opponent wins!
