Objective

Complete 3 dungeon delves to gain experience and treasure. Fight monsters, slay dragons and attempt to level up. Will you become Hero of the Ages?

Player's Turn

The adventurer rolls 7 party dice to determine their companions. Dungeon dice are also rolled - one die per level. Dungeon dice can be monsters to defeat, treasures chests to open, potions to drink or dragons. You will gain 1 experience point per level cleared of monsters and/or dragons. You must defeat monsters before your companion dice can open chests or drink potions. Then you must slay the dragon if there are 3 or more dragon dice in the lair.

Monster Phase

• Roll a number of dungeon dice equals to the level (up to 10) as the monsters.
• Set aside all dragons in the dragon's lair: they cannot be rerolled.
• The adventurer can use a scroll to reroll any number of party and/or dungeon dice.
  • Tip: To use a scroll or fight monsters, move the party and dungeon dice to the Playing Area.
• The adventurer uses their companions to fight monsters. Companion dice are moved to the graveyard after use.
• The adventurer can use their hero's specialty (multiple uses per delve) or their ultimate ability (one use per delve).
• If the monsters are defeated, proceed to the loot phase. If you can't defeat all of the monsters, the adventurer flees and gains no experience (but keeps any treasure tokens they have).

Loot Phase

• A thief or a champion can open any number of chests. Other companion types can only open one chest.
• The adventurer gets a treasure for each opened chest. If there are no treasures left, use experience as a replacement.
• Any party die can quaff any number of potions. A potion can revive a companion with its face chosen by the adventurer, adding companions back into your party for the next round.

Dragon Phase

When there are 3 or more dragon dice in the lair, the Dragon attacks the adventurer:

• To defeat the dragon, you must use 3 different types of companions (not scrolls). NOTE: Hero abilities that allow one type of companion to act as another allow two dice showing the same die face to be counted as two different types of companions.
• If the dragon is not defeated, the adventurer flees and gain no experience (but keeps any treasure tokens).
• If the dragon is defeated, the adventurer gains a treasure token and 1 experience.

Regroup Phase

The adventurer can choose between retiring to the tavern and seeking glory:

• Retire: collect experience points equal to the level just completed. The current delve is over.
• Seek glory: move on to the next dungeon level with all remaining party dice and treasure tokens. The number of dungeon dice increases by 1 for the new level (Level 1 uses 1 dungeon die, Level 2 uses 2 dungeon dice, etc).
  • After completing Level 10, the adventurer has cleared the entire dungeon and must retire.

Party Dice

Companion Types and Special Ability

ALL companions can:

• Defeat 1 monster
• Open 1 treasure chest
• Quaff any number of potions

• A mage (blue wizard's hat icon) can defeat any number of oozes.
• A cleric (grey hammer with halo icon) can defeat any number of skeletons.
• A fighter (green crossed swords icon) can defeat any number of goblins.
• A thief (purple eye mask icon) can only defeat a single monster but can open any number of chests.
• A champion (yellow winged helmet icon) can defeat any number of monsters of a single type or open any number of chests.

• The scroll (orange icon) is not a companion. It cannot defeat monsters but allows you to reroll any number of Monsters (not dragons) and Party dice and can quaff any number of potions. It cannot open chests.

Treasures

Treasures tokens are collected by opening chests and defeating dragons. Treasures are kept for future delves even if the adventurer has to flee the dungeon. Each treasure token can be used only once per game and there are a certain number of them available per game. In the rare case that all treasure tokens have been collected in a game, then 1 experience point is awarded to the adventurer opening a chest instead of a token. At the end of the game, unused treasure tokens are worth 1 experience point each unless specified.

• (3) VORPAL SWOARD (green sword icon): Use as a fighter companion.

• (3) TALISMAN (grey skull necklace icon): Use as a cleric companion.

• (3) SCEPTER OF POWER (blue flaming eye icon): Use as a mage companion.

• (3) SCROLL (orange scroll icon): Use as a scroll.

• (4) RING OF INVISIBILITY (orange ring icon): Evade an attacking dragon (discarding all dragon dice and ending the phase), but do not collect any treasures.

• (6) DRAGON SCALES (yellow scale/shield icon): Each pair of scales is worth 2 additional experience points.

• (3) ELIXIR/POTION (orange flask with stopper icon): Use as any companion.

• (4) DRAGON BAIT (red meat icon): Transform all monsters to dragons, and move them to the dragon's lair.

• (4) TOWN PORTAL (cyan circle with townscape icon): Use instead of fleeing (when unable to defeat monsters or dragons) in order to still collect experience points equal to the level. If unused at the end of the game, it is worth 2 points instead of 1.
