Setup

45 cards are shuffled and 3 removed from the game at random. 5 cards are dealt to each player as a starting hand, and 2 cards face up to the table row.

Objective

Have the highest score from Influence cards after 4 rounds or collect 3 City cards for an Instant Win.

Each turn

On your turn you must either:

- Play a card from your hand (if you have any left) to the end of the row.

OR

- Take up to 5 cards from the right hand end of the row. You may only choose the take action once per round. Cards taken will count for scoring.

Rounds

Rounds end after 6 turns, when each player's hand will have become empty and each player will have taken their draw action.

Players are dealt new hands of 5 cards, and the starting player is passed on for the next round.

Scoring

If a player ever takes 3 City cards, they win instantly. Otherwise the round is scored as follows:

- Whoever took a majority of 8 Supporters scores 8 points.
- Whoever took a majority of 7 Supporters scores 7 points.
- Whoever took a majority of 6 Supporters scores 6 points.
- Whoever took a majority of 5 Supporters scores 5 points.
- Each set of 5-6-7-8 scores 5 points.
- Alliance and Betrayal cards score their face value.

If tied for a type of Supporter, both players score zero for it. City cards are worth nothing during scoring.
