Description

Gionbana ("Gion Flower", named for the Gion region of Kyoto known for its artists and geisha) is a hanafuda game originally released in arcades in 1989. In 1994, it was converted to the Super Famicom. Like most hanafuda games, it never saw an English localization.

The single-player uses a board game motif to connect its games. The player moves around the board earning or losing cash as they play single hands against the CPU.
