Description

[Edit] [History]

Players use card drafting and simultaneous action selection to form a story while interfering with other players' stories. The game consists of four rounds. In each of them, players are dealt five cards. They simultaneously select one each and pass the remainder to the left, repeating until done. Then, they start playing cards simultaneously, playing three and discarding two. When the cards are revealed after each selection, card abilities turn other cards face-up or face-down. At the end of the four rounds there are 12 cards in front of each player. The players each score based on their face-up cards.

This should make it a bit easier for newbies to play the game. It's the same card chart as in the box, but has some color and iconic info.
