  1. On your turn, flip over your top card. 1a. If it's a positive, move your meeple ahead one space. Continue flipping or end your turn. 1b. If it's a negative, move your meeple backwards equal to the number of cards you've flipped this turn, minus 1. End your turn.

Example: You flip over 3 positives, followed by a negative. You move ahead a total of 3 spaces for the positives, then move backwards 3 spaces for the negative (4 cards flipped - 1 = 3).

  1. Your turn can end whenever you choose, unless you flip over a negative, in which case it ends immediately.
  2. Shuffle all your cards together for your next turn.
