About Koinobori, from BoardGameGeek:

Welcome to the fascinating world of Koinobori! Immerse yourself in this experience as you explore the beauty and tradition of colorful Japanese kites. In this game, you'll have the opportunity to design and customize your own koinobori mast and embark on a journey through Japanese culture. Are you ready to elevate your dreams like the koinobori do in the sky? In the game, each player will have their own personal mast, and in the center of the table will be the festival masts, one more than the number of players in the game. There will also be a row of koinobori cards on the table for players to draw from. During a player's turn, they can choose one of these three options: Place a koinobori card on the festival masts: Play a koinobori card on one of the masts. At the end of the game and on each mast, only the color of the koinobori with the most presence on that mast will score points. Place a koinobori card on their personal mast: Play koinobori cards face down on your mast. Each card on your mast will improve your abilities. Be aware that the koinobori you place on your mast will determine your score. Draw koinobori cards: Take a card from the ends of the row of koinobori on the table. Improving your abilities will allow you to draw two cards or not just from the ends. The game ends when the festival masts are completed, and at that point, the scoring phase begins. Within each mast, it is determined which color of koinobori is most repeated, and each player will earn a number of points equal to the multiplication of the number of koinobori on their personal mast by the number of koinobori on the festival mast. The player with the highest score will be the winner. -description from the publisher ¡Bienvenido al fascinante mundo de los koinobori! Sumérgete en esta experiencia mientras exploras la belleza y la tradición de las coloridas cometas japonesas. En este juego, tendrás la oportunidad de diseñar y personalizar tu propio mástil de koinoboris y embarcarte en un viaje por la cultura japonesa, ¿Estás listo para elevar tus sueños como lo hacen los koinobori en el cielo? En el juego, cada jugador tendrá su propio mástil personal y en el centro de la mesa estarán los mástiles del festival, uno más que el número de jugadores en la partida. Sobre la mesa también habrá una fila de cartas de koinobori donde los jugadores podrán ir robando. Durante el turno del jugador/a podrá realizar una de estas tres opciones: Coloca una carta de koinobori en los mástiles del festival: Juega una carta de koinobori en uno de los mástiles, al final de la partida y en cada mástil, puntuará solo el color del koinobori que tenga más presencia en ese mástil. Colocar una carta de koinobori en su mástil: Juega, bocabajo, cartas de koinobori en tu mástil. Cada carta en tu mástil mejorará tus habilidades. Atención porque los koinoboris que coloques en tu mástil determinarán tu puntuación Robar cartas de koinobori: toma una carta de los extremos de la fila de koinoboris sobre la mesa. La mejora de tus habilidades te permitirá tomar dos cartas o tomar cartas no solo de los extremos. La partida terminará cuando los mástiles del festival estén completados y en ese momento se procederá a la fase de puntuación. Dentro de cada mástil se resuelve cuál es el color de koinobori que más se repite y cada jugador ganará un número de puntos igual a la multiplicación del número de koinoboris en su mástil personal por el número de koinoboris en el mástil del festival. El jugador/a con más puntuación al final de la partida será el ganador/a -description from the publisher (Spanish)
