Just imagine: a young Fallera, after a fireworks accident (blame security, of course!), comes back to life as a furious zombie. She's not messing around, and to make matters worse, she awakens a horde of traditional Valencian characters, all now undead. Humanity's only hope? To cook a paella so delicious it calms this zombie Fallera's rage. Sounds crazy? It's Valencia, my friend! In this card game with a 102-card deck, your objective is simple yet challenging: be the first to collect five ingredient cards for the paella. But don't think it'll be easy! Other players can try to steal your precious ingredients and treasures using battle cards.

You'll have to compare attack and defense points, use special cards to strengthen your soldiers, or, if necessary, fiercely punish your rivals. Interaction is constant, situations are varied, and fun is guaranteed in this crazy race to save the world with a good paella! ## FAQ ### What is the main objective of La Fallera Calavera?
