Explanation: El juego de los diablitos (the game of devils) is a traditional festival of the Boruca culture, indigenous people of Costa Rica, which takes place between December 30 and January 2 of each year, to remember the fight against the Spanish conquerors.

This festival aims to give a sense of community identity to the Boruca people, promoting the passage of the tradition from parents to children. The development of handicrafts in the manufacture of masks, drums and maracas used in the festivity is relevant. For the Borucas, the play of the devils represents their struggle of the past, in addition to the present and future struggles they face in the face of the threat of the loss of their territory, always waning since the conquest, and their struggle to preserve their identity.
