KOI

End of the Game

menu

When there are no more cards in the deck or the last koi is taken from the supply, the game nears its end: continue playing until the end of the last player’s turn (the one seated to the right of the first player), then everyone takes one final turn. After that, the game ends and points are tallied.

Scoring Each player scores Victory Points (VP) in these ways (use the score pad):

• Koi award points according to their size—Each small koi: 2 VP; Each medium koi: 4 VP; Each large koi: 6 VP. In addition to points for size, each koi increases its value by 1 VP for each water-lily adjacent to it. Finally, the total value of the koi is doubled if the koi is completely surrounded by water (water hex-sides).

• Each lantern awards 1 VP for every hex (occupied or empty) in a straight line in front of it.

• Each Parchment awards VP as indicated on the card, see The Cards.

• Each Goal tile awards VP as indicated on the relevant card, see Goals.

• Each unused luck token is worth 1VP.

The pond tiles and leftover koi in storage are not worth any points.

The player with the most Victory Points is the winner!

In case of a tie, the one who has the most coins wins. If the tie remains, the winner among tied players is the one farther away from the first player, in clockwise order.
