It's time for the Meiji Restoration to begin! The Emperor has commanded a vast expansion. The most talented architects have been summoned to build great shrines and compete for the highest title, Grand Cordon of the Order of the Sacred Treasure. Who will best fulfill the Emperor's wishes and be granted this impressive honor?

In Jinja, a worker placement game with light area control, players start the game by drafting Deed cards. Throughout the game, players will place workers on activities that will allow them to collect Structures (needed to complete their Deed cards), build Shrines, make gold offerings for Honor, and more. The player with the most Honor at the end of five Seasons wins the game.
