Imagine this: you and your fellow adventurers were caught looting the hoard of the dreaded dragon, Drakon. Instead of eating you immediately, she decides to play a sadistic game. The deal is simple: the first hero to collect ten gold pieces wins their freedom. The rest? Well, the rest become dragon snacks.

In Drakon, you are trapped in a constantly shifting labyrinth. Each turn, you face a dilemma: either move your hero to explore the lair or use a tile from your hand to expand the maze. This is where the mischief happens! You can place beneficial rooms in your own path or, better yet, drop dangerous chambers right in your opponent's way to wreck their strategy. Some rooms allow you to destroy parts of the map, summon windstorms for extra movement, or even shift floating rooms to the other side of the dungeon.

But be careful, gold isn't distributed evenly. Coins are kept face-down, meaning you never truly know if that treasure is worth 1 or 3 points. This creates a delicious tension as you guess who is actually close to victory. To make matters worse, Drakon herself stalks the corridors. If you're unlucky (or if an opponent is clever enough to move her toward you), you'll be sent straight back to the entrance and lose gold in the process.

To survive, you'll need to use your hero's special ability. Whether it's the sorceress passing through walls, the thief stealing gold at the perfect moment, or the ranger bursting with speed, each power can only be used once per game. Timing is everything! Will you play fair, or will you be the greediest person at the table to ensure your survival? Get ready, because in this labyrinth, friendship ends where the gold begins.
