This game has drawn crowds at every convention it’s been showcased. Much of it has to do with the enthusiasm of it’s creators, because enthusiasm is contagious, but it also has interesting design elements to finish planting hooks into by-passing convention attendees.

To help support the Japaneese theme, the scenery has been filled with lush woods, vegetation and weathered stone. The color of green chosen has been desaturated slightly and given a slightly more yellowish appearance to convey a feeling of ancient times.

The logo itself plays on the traditional Yin and Yang sign, good and evil, or black and white. Similarly, the main characters, twin brothers, are both light and dark, in both attire and personality.

The biggest future challenge will be the sculpting and production of character ame pieces, perhaps cast of black and white colored plastic, or painted realistically.

For now, players of the game seem very content using the provided plastic colored disks to represent the characters. It is, after all, a game designed to spark the imagination.
