MGoulet:

= Arboretum: Rules and Gameplay =

== Objective and Overview ==

In Arboretum, players compete to create the most beautiful and high-scoring arboretum by arranging cards in a meaningful path of trees for 2-4 players.

Arboretum consists of 80 cards, divided into 10 unique tree species, each numbered 1–8. Each player is dealt 7 cards. The remaining cards are placed in a draw pile in the center of the table.

== Game Play ==

Players take turns in clockwise order. Each turn consists of three phases:

=== 1. Draw ===

Draw '''two cards''' from the available sources:
* The central draw pile.
* The top card of any discard pile (including your own).

=== 2. Play ===

Choose '''one card''' from your hand to add to your arboretum.
* Place it face-up in front of you.
* Cards in your arboretum must be arranged orthogonally (no diagonal connections).
* You are building paths, and the arrangement impacts your score.

=== 3. Discard ===

Discard '''one card''' face-up to your personal discard pile.

== End of the Game ==

The game ends when there are no further cards in the '''draw pile.''' The player who drew the last card plays their turn normally, and then scoring occurs.

== Scoring ==

Scoring is based on paths of cards in your arboretum:

=== Path Rules ===

A valid path '''starts and ends''' with cards of the same tree species.
The path must increase in value numerically but does not need to be consecutive.
Paths can include cards of other species.

=== Determining Rights to Score ===

Each player reveals their remaining hand.
To score a species, you must have the '''highest sum of values''' of that species in your hand.
'''Exception:''' If you have the 8 of a color in your hand, but ''one of your opponents'' has the 1 of the same color in their hand, the value of your 8 is reduced to 0 when determining which player has the right to score paths of a particular color. The 1 is always worth 1.
If multiple players tied the highest sum of values of that species (even if 0), all the tied players will gain the right to score.
Note: It is possible to gain the right to score points of a color of path that is not present in your arboretum.

=== Calculating Points ===

'''+1 point''' for each card in the valid path.
'''+1 additional points''' if the path starts with a 1 card.
'''+2 additional points''' if the path ends with an 8 card.
'''+1 additional point for each card''' in paths containing 4 or more cards and only cards of the species being scored.

A card may score in multiple paths (e.g. horizontally and vertically), so long as it satisfies the valid path requirement.
You only score one (the highest scoring) path for each scoring species.

=== Winning ===

The player with the highest total score after final scoring wins.
In the event of a tie, the tied player with the most species present in their arboretum wins.

== Strategy Notes ==

Balance your hand to maintain scoring potential while disrupting opponents.
Pay attention to your opponents' discard piles for hints about their strategy.
Use high-value cards tactically to secure scoring rights.

MGoulet:

==Goal of the Game==

In Classified Information each player is trying to deduce their opponent’s Code and have one card in their hand that matches one of the numbers in their opponent’s Code when the game ends.

==Game turn==

1- Draw a card from the Draw Pile.

2- Play a card in one of three ways.

===Deploy===

Play a card for its Card Ability. Carry out the card’s Card Ability text and place it in the Discard Pile.

===Encrypt===

Play a card face down into the hidden Encrypted Card Pile.

<b>Note:</b> this conceals information from your opponent.

===Enlist===

Play a card for its Guild Affiliation:

====Guards====

Played face down into one of your three Guard spots.

<b>Note:</b> You may only have three Guards at any time.

====Assassins====

Attempt or carry out an assassination. Played face up and then discarded.

====Sentinels====

Can be used either as a <b>Guard</b> or as an <b>Assassin</b>. Played face up or down accordingly

==End of game==

The game ends when the Draw Deck is empty and each player has one card left in hand (“Final Card”). Then, all Suitcases and Guards
are revealed.

If a player’s Final Card matches a number in their opponent’s Code they win. Guards block matching numbers in the Code of the Suitcase they are guarding, preventing any card of that number from winning the game.

If both players have, or neither player has, an unguarded matching card, the player with more Guards wins. If tied, share the victory.

==Numbers on opponent face down Guards==

You can take note on opponent's Guard when you try an assassination and it's failed. You can use numbers to remind which number is not in their code.

For example, if you try an assassination with a code like [3,4,5] and you miss, their code can't be [1,2,3], [3,4,5], [4,5,6] and [5,6,7]. In this case, you can highlight number [2,3,4,5,6] (the middle number of each code) since the suitcase number will not be one of them.

MGoulet: /* Hints for your first games */

== Objective ==

To be the first player to solve your own Mystery, correctly identifying the '''Person''',
'''Location''', and '''Weapon'''.

== Setup ==

Each player will received '''one Person''', '''one Location''', and '''one Weapon card''' in addition of two random cards. You must choose exactly '''one Person''', '''one Location''', and '''one Weapon card''', and place them face down in front of you. The two remaining cards are kept secret in front of you.

'''Playing Hint''': You can choose any combination, but try to avoid three of the same suit

== Player's Turn ==

At the beginning of your turn, if you have no Magnifying Glasses, take one from the general supply. If the supply is empty, take one from the player of your choice instead.

Next, “spend” all your Magnifying Glasses. Each Magnifying Glass spent lets you choose one of the following actions. You can take these actions in any order you choose, and you may repeat the same action more than once (exception: Make an
Accusation, see below). Once you’ve spent all your Magnifying Glasses your turn is over and it’s the next player’s turn.

== The Actions ==

=== Question a Witness ===

Give your Magnifying Glass to the player of your choice, then ask that player how many cards they see that are of one suit or one category.

The player you ask '''must answer truthfully''' (no bluffing is allowed!), based on everything they can see: all the cards on the screens in front of the other players and the two cards behind their screen

=== Consult the Secret Informant ===

Give your Magnifying Glass to the player who has no Magnifying Glasses (if more than one, the tied player closest to you, counting clockwise; if all players have at least one Magnifying Glass, discard it to the general supply instead), then choose '''one''' of the face down Secret Informant cards, look at it secretly, then put it back where it was, face down.

'''Note''': This option is not available in a six-player game.

=== Make an Accusation ===

Give your Magnifying Glass to the player who has no Magnifying Glasses (if more than one, the tied player closest to you, counting clockwise; if all players have at least one Magnifying Glass, discard it to the general supply instead), then '''try to solve your mystery!''' Name '''one Person''', '''one Location''', and '''one Weapon''' (for example: “It was the Butcher in the Park with the Sword!”). You cannot make an accusation that includes cards you can see (either behind your screen or on other players’ screens).

* If your accusation is '''correct''', you have solved your mystery and '''you win the game!'''
* If you're '''wrong''', they just tell you! '''Your turn is over''': discard any Magnifying Glasses you have left to the general supply.

== Additional rules for 2 player games ==

* Ignore the Magnifying Glasses and their rules. Each player always takes only one action each turn.
* When you ask how many cards your opponent sees, you '''must''' also specify "including the card on your left" or "including the card on your right". Your opponent only takes into account the card behind their screen on that side

== Hints for your first games ==

* If you rule out all of the cards removed during Setup and all the cards you can see, you will be left with 13 spaces. The solution to your mystery is among those '''13 Clues'''.
* If a player’s answer to a question is "Zero!", you can rule out all of the cards that were asked about—no matter who asked the question—since you now know that those cards can’t be on your screen
* A player receiving additional Magnifying Glasses usually gains no information, but he will have more actions when it is his turn: Think twice before giving a player too many Magnifying Glasses!
* Be careful when making an accusation: each wrong accusation can give away clues to the other players!
