What are Japanese Menko cards?
Japanese Menko cards are a traditional toy and game originating in the Kamakura period, popular during the Edo period. They are circular or rectangular playing cards typically made from clay or board. The game, generally played by boys, involves slapping the cards to turn them over, and strategic use of cards with different specific gravities adds complexity and variety to the gameplay.
