Overview

Irezumi is a game in which players play the role of the Yakuza's leaders identified with unique different tattoos (secret card). The players manage their deck of Tattoo and Inks to complete the Irezumi of the subordinates's body in order to obtain their loyalty. Your goal is to obtain the majority playing cards in different stack. All the choices are focused on the bluff and the deduction of which tattoo belongs to a certain boss. There are different strategies to manage your hand and the luck factor, although present, is very limited.
