About the Game

Game Description

Zenji is a mindful card game for 2 to 4 players, where each participant strives to become the Zen Master by collecting Elemental Points (EP).

Throughout the game, players must learn to manage their “Monkey Mind” — a playful metaphor for distraction and impulsivity — while making thoughtful decisions that test their focus, patience, and awareness.

Blending strategy, mental balance, and interactive gameplay, Zenji offers a unique experience that trains essential cognitive skills such as attention, self-control, and concentration — all while having fun.

The "Journey of Remembering" in Zenji is about strategically managing one's Monkey Mind, accumulating Elemental Points, and outsmarting opponents. Through careful card selection, calculated risks, and mindful decisions, players strive to clear their minds and achieve Zen mastery.

Always guided by four mystical allies, the avatars of AIR, EARTH, WATER and FIRE!
