About Nyakuza, from BoardGameGeek:

Nyakuza is a competitive game for 2-4 players. Each player is the head of a Cat Yakuza Clan, vying for control over the fishing industry. Get ahead of the competition! Bid for Boats to go out and net the freshest catch in the Bay and establish your seafood Stalls before your rivals. The first Clan to build their Grand Market Stall wins the game! Control the Fishing Industry Around Oki-Yo Bay The waters of Oki-Yo Bay are teeming with fish. Such a lucrative spot would be a great place to set up operations for the different Nyakuza Clan. But, in the end, only one can be top-cat. In Nyakuza, players take on the role of heads of their respective Nyazuka clan. They will bid for boats that will catch the freshest fish out in the bay, then sell them in their seafood Stalls. Each player is racing to build their own Grand Market Stall first, which will prove that they are the best clan and win the game.
