How It Plays
Events
Random events shake things up during the game — sometimes helpful, sometimes chaotic, always interesting.
Hand Management
You have a hand of cards and deciding which to play, save, or discard is the core puzzle.
Push Your Luck
You keep rolling or drawing for bigger rewards, but push too far and you lose it all — knowing when to stop is the real skill.
Set Collection
You're gathering matching groups of cards or tokens to score points — the more complete your sets, the better you do.
