The White Castle: The heron takes flight!
The heron takes flight! The White Castle, the latest hit from the creators of The Red Cathedral, is now available to play right here on Board Game Arena!
Step into the refined world of Himeji Castle, Japan’s iconic "White Heron," where strategy and timing are everything. In this elegant Euro-style game, you will lead a clan under the command of Daimyo Sakai Tadakiyo. Over three intense rounds, you will place workers, manage resources, and climb the social ranks of the court- all in a bid to score the most victory points and gain the Daimyo’s favor.
Designed by Sheila Santos and Israel Cendrero (Llama Dice), The White Castle is a tight, tactical experience with:
- Dice placement and worker placement mechanics
- Multiple strategic paths: tend the gardens, patrol the walls, or rise through the court
- Immersive setting with layered gameplay and accessible rules
Each zone of the board- from the koi ponds to the Room of the Thousand Carpets- offers different opportunities. Will your clan relax in the gardens, defend the castle, or push into the inner circle of nobility?
The White Castle is ready for you to discover today, easy to learn thanks to the tutorial, fully playable online, in real time or turn-based, right on BGA!
