Fluttering Souls is a captivating, beautifully illustrated two-player game based on the Japanese legend of The White Butterfly. You will compete to collect a kaleidoscope of butterflies in the hope of being visited by The White Butterfly; the soul of a lost loved one. Legend of the White Butterfly Many years ago an apprentice merchant named Taka Hama fell hopelessly in love with a woman named Akiko. They became engaged, but, tragically, Akiko died before they could be wed.Takahama was distraught. He had built a life and a successful career, but he could not bear to be away from his love. Such was his dedication to Akiko that he abandoned his trade and gave his life to the upkeep of the cemetery where she was buried. For 50 years Taka Hama visited Akiko's grave every day with a single pure white rose. One day, Taka Hama fell so ill he could not go outside. Fearing he may die, his sister and niece came to care for him. While he lay there, unable to move, a butterfly of the purest white landed gently on his pillow. Annoyed, Takahama's niece tried to shoo the butterfly, but it would not stray from the pillow of the dying mania's Takahama's final breath left his body, so the butterfly flew to the grave of Akiko and disappeared. White butterflies are believed to be the visiting souls of loved ones. Worried that Taka Hama had not visited her grave that day; Akiko looked over him and did not leave until his soul had joined hers.OverviewFluttering Souls is a 2 player game, made up of 3 - 5 rounds.
