Get ready for a building and strategy adventure in 'Mission Dragon', a game where each player starts with a modest tower and the goal is to dominate the sky! Each round, you roll a special die that will dictate your options. Possibilities include expanding your own tower, adding a new floor and making it more imposing. But beware, the competition is fierce! You can also place a tower piece on top of another player's tower, taking control of that structure and turning the game in your favor. And it doesn't stop there: the die might allow you to steal a precious diamond from the fearsome dragon, a valuable resource for final scoring. Of course, not everything is action, and sometimes the die might indicate it's time to skip your turn, adding a touch of unpredictability. Tension builds as the five diamonds are gradually stolen from the dragon. When the last diamond is taken, the dragon is released and, in its fury, might knock over parts of the towers, creating an exciting climax. In the end, points are awarded based on who controls the tallest tower, who controls the most towers, and who has accumulated the most diamonds. 'Mission Dragon' is a fun and strategic race to see who can build the highest empire and steal the most of the dragon's treasure!
