Publisher: Devir
The heron flies across the Himeji sky while the Daimyo watches his servants move about from the top of the castle. Gardeners tend the pond where the koi carp live, warriors keep watch on the walls, and courtiers crowd at the gates, longing for an audience that will bring them closer to the inner circles of the court. As evening falls, the lanterns are lit and the workers return to their clan.
In The White Castle, players control one of these clans and try to score more victory points than the rest. To do this they must gain influence at court, manage resources cleverly and place their workers in the right spot at the right moment. The designers are Sheila Santos and Israel Cendrero, the duo known as Llama Dice, who also created the successful The Red Cathedral together with Devir. This time we leave behind the Moscow of Ivan the Terrible to explore the most imposing fortress of early modern Japan, Himeji Castle, where the flag of the Sakai clan flies under the command of Daimyo Sakai Tadakiyo.
