(*) Karuta :
Karuta is a Japanese card game introduced by Portuguese traders during the mid 16th century. To play competitive karuta, competitors split a pack of cards and wait for a reciter to read poems that correspond with the cards laid in front of them. The aim is to quickly determine which is the correct card, and then to retrieve it before it is grabbed by an opponent. The player who ends up with the most cards at the end of the game, wins.
