Mechanics (from transcript analysis)
  • Card Drafting — players draft tribute cards to gain favor with Panda Lords and to play them in rounds
  • dynamic turn order — the direction of play can change mid-round
  • end-of-round tribute accounting — at end of each round, players who meet a Lord's condition pay tribute back to the supply to claim matching favors
  • final round hand size increase — final round uses 10 cards instead of 7, preventing early game leads
  • interactive/affect other players — cards that affect other players' plays or let you choose cards for opponents
  • round-based progression with evolving content — rounds introduce new Lords, usurpers, and event cards (e.g., Honeypot, Moon Barbarian, Polar Bear Zerker, etc.)
  • simultaneous selection with pass — players simultaneously choose a tribute from hand, reveal, resolve in turn order, then pass cards in the direction of play
  • tribute tokens — playing tribute cards yields tribute tokens (e.g., Lotus = 1, Bamboo = 3) used to gain favor with Lords
  • unique favor tiles and tiebreakers — scoring uses unique favor tiles; tie resolution involves high Panda and tiebreak tiles
