Goal of the Game

You build up essences in the form of scent marks and light shows (dice combinations) bit by bit in order to be able to stun or chase away the whimsical creatures of Lorbumol with them.

This requires your cleverness and cooperation, because not every Lorbumol can be scared with every essence. Will you be able to repel the Lorbumol invasion or will you be overrun by them?

Game Modes

The game can be played in 4 different modes. Decide on a game mode and consider the respective additional rules.

Gameplay

The game is played over several rounds until either the victory condition occurs or you run out of dice. Each round consists of two phases: "Preparation" and "Encounter". In each phase, you all have exactly one turn (once per phase). There are additional special rules for every game mode.

Preparation

1. Monster Movement (cards on board)
2. Monster Expansion (new monster)
3. Essence Extraction (draw dice)
4. Essence Production (use dice in combinations)
5. Essence Modification (change dice combinations)
6. Use Rewards (special functions)

Encounter

1. Hit Accuracy (1 additional roll)
2. Monster Injury (with insufficient hit accuracy)
3. Monster Stun (with sufficient hit accuracy)
4. Essence Usage (remove used dice)
5. Counterattack (unstunned and injured monsters)

Each step during preparation and encounter may perform different effects.

Game End

Each game mode has its own victory condition. In general, it is the stunning of a certain amount of monsters or the big monster Ghost Urbunak.
