== How to Play ==
On your turn, perform one of the following actions:

# Bribe the Dragon (3 steps)
# Visit the Black Market (2 steps)
# Draw 1 card

== Bribe the Dragon ==
'' Maybe he’ll spare us for a pile of Magic Scrolls? ''

==== Step 1: Make the Bribe ====
Choose 1 or more Treasure cards of the same type (plus any Wilds) from your hand to offer the Dragon.
You may make a new Bribe OR add to an existing Bribe.

Wild cards CANNOT be played on their own as a new Bribe. They must be played with at least 1 Treasure card. Wild cards CAN be added to an already existing Bribe on their own.

==== Step 2: Gain the Dragon's Favor ====
''The Dragon is pleased, and your Treasure increases in value.''
* The Treasure token matching the Treasure card you played moves one space to the right for every card you used (including Wilds) to make a Bribe.
* Treasure tokens you pass are moved down to make room.
* A Treasure token can never go beyond the 4 space. If you Bribe with the Treasure type already in the 4 space, the Treasure token does not move.

==== Step 3: Refill the Black Market ====
* Cards are dealt from the deck into the Market Stalls.
* The first Treasure is added to the 3 Market Stall, the second to the 2 Market Stall, and so on.
* After placing a Treasure in the 0 Market Stall, the next Treasure card will start the line over in the 3 Market Stall, then the 2 Market Stall, and so on.
* Treasures will be placed like this until either a card matching the Treasure card you played in your Bribe OR a Wild card is placed in a Market Stall.

* If the deck runs out before a matching Treasure card (or Wild card) is turned over, '''the game ends'''.

== Visit the Black Market ==
''It’s a deal too good to pass up!''

==== Step 1: Buy Treasure Cards ====
You can visit the Black Market to buy more Treasure cards and curse a Treasure token to reduce its value.

* Decide which Market Stall you would like to buy cards from.
* Discard the number of cards from your hand equal to the cost shown on the chosen Market Stall.
* You may discard Treasure cards of any type to pay the cost. They do not need to be all the same.
* You can discard Wild cards to count towards that total, but you can never discard ONLY Wild cards. You must discard at least 1 Treasure card.
* Take all the cards from the Market Stall and add them to your hand.
* Cards in the 0 Market Stall may be taken for free without discarding any cards, as they have no cost.
* There is no limit to the number of cards you may have in your hand.

==== Step 2: Curse a Treasure ====
* Select a Treasure card you discarded (not a Wild) to be cursed.
* Move that Treasure token down 1 space to the left in the Dragon's Favor for every card you discarded. This decreases the value of that Treasure.
* Treasure tokens you pass are moved up to make room.
* If you choose the cards in the 0 Market Stall, you do not curse a Treasure token because no cards were paid.
* Unlike when making a Bribe, you CANNOT discard more cards than the cost of the cards you are buying.

=== Draw 1 Card ===
''Maybe we can find something good lying around?''
* Instead of Making a Bribe or Visiting the Black Market, you may draw the top card of the deck and add it to your hand.
* There is no limit to the number of cards you may have in your hand.
* Drawing the last card from the deck does '''not''' end the game.
* If the deck is empty ''before'' you choose this action, '''the game ends'''.

== Game End ==
The game does not end immediately when the deck is empty. Instead, it ends when you would draw a card, but cannot do so.
* Once the game ends, Treasure cards in your hand matching Bribes you have already made will be added to your bribes.
* Any Treasure cards you haven't used in Bribes will stay in your hand.
* Wild cards will stay in your hand.

== Scoring ==
* Every card in a Bribe is worth the value shown for the matching Treasure token in the Dragon's Favor.
* For every Treasure card left in your hand, you lose the value shown for the matching Treasure token in the Dragon’s Favor.
* For every Wild card left in your hand, you lose 2 points.
* The player with the highest score will have their village spared and is the winner!
* In case of a tie, the player who has the most cards of the highest value Treasure token is the winner.
* If still tied, the player with the most cards of the next value to the left in the Dragon's Favor wins, and so on.
