Yin and yang is a concept of dualism in ancient Chinese philosophy, representing two opposite principles. Yin is the feminine while Yang is masculine, and this concept is embodied in all things around the world, such as winter and summer, male and female, and light and dark.

Yin Yang takes players back to ancient China during the Warring State period before the common era. At the time, China was divided into seven kingdoms, fighting each other constantly, and people were living in suffering. To pursue inner peace, every kind of fortune-telling method was then developed.

One of those fortune-telling methods involves taking a tortoise shell with copper coins inside, then shaking it to have indications based on which coins emerge and how they fall. This method is exactly what Yin Yang is based on. Players act as Taoist priests, traveling on an ancient Chinese map to retrieve the local specialty of different cities to unlock their own destiny. Additionally, players can also build temples in different cities to earn worship from seven kingdoms.

Includes Metal Coins and Metal Tortoise Shell!

Penelope B. ★★★★★

I picked this up while trying to find more balance between work and rest, and the yin-yang framing honestly stuck with me more than I expected. The idea of two opposite principles being present in everything is simple, but it's made me notice the push and pull in my own routines.

Edward M. ★★★★★

The way this set frames the push-and-pull between dark and light is so striking that I catch myself staring at it every time I walk past. It turned a corner of my desk into a little daily reminder that opposing forces don't have to fight—they can just sit together quietly.

Benjamin C. ★★★★★

I've been meditating on the balance between my assertive work self and my nurturing home side, and having this concept as a daily visual reminder has genuinely shifted my perspective. The design captures both energies so clearly that I find myself noticing how they show up in everything around me no
