Each kingdom is illustrated with a set of five region cards.

Each phase, a character can adventure in the town, where rewards are predictable and creatures not so dangerous. Or they can head out to the wilderness, where strange cyphers have unpredictable powers and the creatures look to bash you into oblivion.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGameplay is simultaneous and every action is rewarded with victory points.
