About the Game

In the age of provincial wars, there used to be a group of experts called Anou who are all true masters of masonry. Their speciality was laying the fieldstones to form a stonewall for a castle. “Listen to the voice of the stone, and follow them”. Only a few who could master the art of masonry were considered to be a part of it.

Anou is a trick taking game. Players become a member of Anou, laying stones in front of themselves to form a stonewall. You don’t want your wall to be too high nor too low, go precisely as you planned or else you will get a penalty. Whoever scores the most by the end of the game becomes a master builder of Anou.
