Preparation (Setup)

While playing with this mini-expansion, use Event cards and Adventure cards from this pack instead of cards from the base game. When using the Wreckage cards from the Companion App packs, do not skip the first Event Phase. You must resolve the Event specified on the Wreckage card during the initial round.

The Build, Gather, and Explore Action spaces are connected to a specific Mystery card type:

  • Brown (Building) Creatures
  • Grey (Gathering) Traps
  • Green (Exploration) Treasure

During the game, you place Mystery cards below these Action spaces. The Stacks usually consist of matching card types as described above, but some game effects may instruct you otherwise.

The game includes:

  • 34 Event cards
  • 1 Wreckage card
  • 25 Build Adventure cards
  • 25 Gather Adventure cards
  • 25 Explore Adventure cards

Ações e Como Jogar

The Build, Gather, and Explore Action spaces are connected to a specific Mystery card type.

Adding Cards to Stacks

Add (1 or more) Mystery card icon to the top of the Stack: Draw the card(s) from the top of the Mystery deck and place them face up below the Action space of the indicated color. Place them in such a way that the type icons on the Mystery card icon are never covered.

Add Mystery card icon to the bottom of the Stack: Draw the card(s) from the top of the Mystery deck, and without reading their text, place them face up behind the cards already below the Action space of the indicated color. Place them in such a way that the type icons on the Mystery card icon are never covered.

Add X Mystery card icon/// to the top of the matching Stack:

  • Creatures to the Brown Stack
  • Traps to the Grey Stack
  • Treasures to the Green Stack

Example: "Add 2 Mystery card icon to the top of the Matching Stack(s)." If you have drawn 1 Creature icon and 1 Treasure icon, place the Creature icon on top of the Brown Stack and the Treasure icon on top of the Green Stack.

Add 1 Mystery card icon to the bottom of the Brown Stack (do not read the effect).

Resolving Cards

Resolving Mystery card icon during the Event Phase always affects the First Player (unless otherwise stated).

A Trap card with the effect “Stop drawing Mystery cards.” When resolved from the Stack, instead of resolving this effect, get 1 Determination token icon.

Removing Cards from Stacks

Remove 1 Mystery card icon from any Stack: Choose any 1 card from a Stack and, without resolving the card, remove it from the game (do not read the cards before choosing which one to discard!).

Stack Size

Biggest/Smallest: In case of a tie, all tied decks count as the Biggest or the Smallest stack.

Example: “The effect: Add 1 matching Mystery card icon to the top of the biggest Stack” means that you first identify the biggest Stack and then draw Mystery cards until you find a card matching that Stack. If there is a tie for the biggest Stack, add the matching card of the Stack that is drawn first.
