Once card drafting is complete, every player will have 4

Players Hand cards. Play then continues as described in


Step 2 of the How to Play instructions. Each time the Dealer
is passed, Players repeat these card drafting rules to replenish their Players Hand.

Level Drain cards are Active Cards. Any instruction to Discard cards with the key words Undead, Magic, Monster,
Event or an Active Card can be used to Discard a Level
Drain card. A Discarded Level Drain card is removed from
the Active Hand, regardless of its status.

To win in the regular rules Players have the same goal; be


the first to reach your Prestige goal. Secret Mission cards
offer an alternate, individual way for Players to win. Because
they are not shown until a Player completes their Secret Mission and wins, Players must consider how others are Trading
and Resolving cards to deduce and prevent someone from
stealing a victory with their Secret Mission.
How to set up the Secret Mission
Complete these steps before starting the Set Up instructions.
1. Shuffle and Deal face up a number of Secret Mission
cards equal to the number of Players.
2. Place all remaining Secret Mission cards face down and
out of play.
3. Make sure all Players review the face up Secret Mission
4. Flip the cards face down and shuffle them together.

Additional Level Drain rules

Players may never take or Trade another Players Level


Drain card.
Level Drain cards occur because of a Level Drain special
instruction. If the card with the Level Drain instruction is
Discarded during the Resolve step, the Level Drain does
not occur. Once a Level Drain card is placed in the Active
Hand, Discarding the card with the initial Level Drain special instruction does not Discard the Level Drain card.

OPTIONAL RULES
Card Drafting the Players Hand

Dealing the Players Hand favors fast play, bluffing and


little information about other Players cards. For Players
who desire more strategic information, while leaving
enough incomplete information to allow misinformation,
replace Step 1 in the How to Play instructions with these
optional card drafting rules;
1. The Dealer distributes 5 cards to each Player.
2. Players select one card to keep in their Players Hand.
3. All Players then pass the remaining 4 cards to the
Player on their left.
4. Players select another card to add to their Players
Hand, then pass the remaining 3 cards to the left.
5. Players select a third card for their Players Hand, then
return the remaining 2 cards face down to the Dealer.
6. Without revealing them, the Dealer places all the face
down cards on the bottom of the Draw deck.
7. The Dealer then deals a fourth card for each Player.
This chaos card ensures one unknown card is in every Players Hand.

Secret Mission Cards

5. Deal each Player one Secret Mission card, face down.


Players secretly look at their mission, then place it face
down under their Player Card.
How to win with a Secret Mission
Each Secret Mission card describes a unique winning condition. During the Scoring round, a Player who has met the
winning condition flips over their Secret Mission card to
announce their victory.
Additional Secret Mission card rules
A Player can always win by reaching their Prestige goal,
regardless of their Secret Mission.
Do not reveal a Secert Mission during the Reveal and
Resolve step. Remember, Players can still take actions
against each other during these steps.
Players score Secret Mission wins starting left of the
Dealer as described in Winning or Losing.
During scoring each Player must first sum their Survival
score, check their Level Drain status, then Prestige and
lastly reveal a Secret Mission win.
A Secret Mission card is not a Players Hand or Active

card. Instructions which allow you to peek at or Dis


card a card never affect a Secret Mission card.
Players should deny and lie about their Secret Mission. Players may never show their Secret Mission
card until announcing a win during Scoring.
If other Players deduce your Secret Mission, do not
reveal it. You can still complete the mission for the
win.
If a Player reveals their Secret Mission card and discovers
they did not meet the winning condition, that Player can
no longer win with their Secret Mission. Continue play.
Other Players can still win with their Secret Mission, and
any Player can win by reaching their Prestige goal.
