📖 About This Game
Players compete as dragon riders using special cards to advance to the finish, while dodging attacks like ballista bolts and flaming balls. The victor wins the treasure - and even more priceless - a place in dragon-racing history!
The goal is to race from start to finish using a handful of cards to make strategic choices. Special cards that block other players' actions mean you must pay attention - even when it is not your turn.
With the ability to steal other players' cards and cards that are character-specific, sudden and significant reversals of fortune are common. Winning is never a foregone conclusion.
