Onimaru
Heroes band together to defend an ancient Japanese village from Oni and their endless hordes. Each round, enemies emerge from a dark gate while players develop their heroes, then roll and coordinate dice to attack foes or perform powerful techniques. The Oni retaliate by damaging heroes, summoning Hordelings, and directing them in combat. Players must defeat three Oni within a set number of days, using customizable heroes and adapting to each Oni’s unique attacks and minions.
