The samurai train their mental strength by filling columns and/or rows of bamboo sticks with numbers to trigger point scores. Bamboo is a dice game in which players must first collect symbols to be thrown before they can enter them in the scoring table. If a player succeeds in filling a row or column, then this row is scored by ALL players. The more points are awarded the more different symbols are entered there. But not all rows and columns are scored, so the players have to keep an eye on what the other players are doing. —description from the publisher
