The Devils Game was declared Intangible Cultural Heritage of Costa Rica in 2017. Its origin dates back to the conquest of Costa Rica by the Spanish, and it is considered one of the main festivities of the Boruca people. The Diablitos Festival is the cultural activity with the greatest participation and enthusiasm among the inhabitants of Boruca and other Bribri, Cabécar and Térraba indigenous communities. Today, this celebration attracts the attention of non-indigenous visitors from the Central Valley, San Isidro del General, Buenos Aires and other towns in the southern part of Costa Rica. Along with the production of crafts using traditional techniques and the belief in a mythical character called Cuasrán, the game of the little devils is one of the three most significant elements of the Boruca identity.
