	Description Edit \| History

Players are trying to escape the dragon's lair. Each turn a player places a tile or moves his Hero. Many tiles have a special icon, allowing players who occupy them to take special actions. Some examples would be take a gold, steal a gold from another player or destroy a tile in play.

The goal is to get 5 gold pieces. A variant grants each Hero a special action that can be used once per game.
