Prologue
A world at peace has been torn apart by the opening of chasms across the
land. Goblins spew forth from the underworld, pouring into the sacred
mushroom grottos and destroying eons of ancient knowledge and magic.
To end this, you must venture forth on an epic quest!

There are many ways to help save the Mushroom Realm: defeating nasty
Goblins, learning ancient Spells, raiding dangerous Temples, acquiring
powerful Items, and completing treacherous Quests. Along the way, you'll
need to rely on planning and wit, but be careful not to push your luck too far!

Objective and Overview

The objective is to have the most Victory Points at the end of five rounds.
Victory Points are earned from completing Quests, defeating Goblins,
learning Spells, and acquiring Legendary Items.
Each round is broken into two phases: Day and Night. During the Day,
players use different methods of movement to send their heroes around the
land completing Quests, visiting helpful Mushroom Grottos, and positioning
themselves to explore Temples, learn Spells at Obelisks, and attack Goblins as
they emerge from their Portals.
During the Night, players press their luck looking to resolve what they set up
during the Day. To do this, players will take turns rolling Adventure Dice,
sharing the results, and hoping for good fortune. But if they don't know when
to Rest, they risk losing their progress for the round.
After five rounds, the game is over and Victory Points are totaled. The player
with the most is crowned the winner!

Gameplay Overview
The game is played over 5 rounds, after
which players total their final scores. Each of
the five rounds consists of two phases:

Day Phase Night Phase

Movement and Questing Adventure and Resolution

DAY PHASEMovement aND Questing

The Day Phase consists of 4 turns, regardless of the number of players, and starts
with the player who holds the First Player Token, then proceeds clockwise
around the table. This means that only 4 of the 5 Movement Cards will be used
during a single round.
On your turn:
1. Select a Movement Card and slide it up so that it
stands higher in the row, then choose from A or B:
A. move 1 of your Heroes onto a Region (see
Regions on the Map Cards, pg. 9) of a new
Map Card using the travel method depicted
on the Movement Card (see next page).
B. remain Idle and not move (see Idling, pg. 8).

2. Going clockwise, each other player must either

use the selected Movement Card or choose to
remain Idle instead.

3. After all players have moved or remained Idle,

flip the selected Movement Card face down and
place it back into the row to show it is no longer
available this round. The next player selects a new
Movement Card and the procedure is repeated
until 4 Movement Cards have been played.

This completes the Day Phase (see Day Phase Completion, pg. 12).

6
Hero Movement
There are five types of Movement Cards in the game, each describing a unique
travel method. The travel method for the turn is the same whether you selected
the card yourself or you are following the player who selected the card.
When a Hero moves, they must always move to a different Map Card.
A Hero cannot be moved to a Region (see Regions on the Map Cards, pg. 9)
on the same Map Card. When moving across any number Map Cards, your
Hero is considered to be moving through each Map Card between the
start and finish locations.
The 5 Movement Cards and their respective travel methods are:

By Horse
Move 1 Hero horizontally to
any different Map Card
along the "road".

By Raft
Move 1 Hero vertically to
any different Map Card
along the "river".

By Gryphon
Move 1 Hero diagonally
to any different Map Card
along the diagonal path.

By Ship
Move 1 Hero on the Coast
(perimeter of the Land Map) to
any different Map Card on the
Coast. Map Cards passed along
the Coast are considered to have
been "moved through."

By Foot
Move 1 Hero in any direction to
any adjacent Map Card.
7
Moving Past Goblins
Goblin Tokens have two sides:
Passive Goblins (green) Aggressive Goblins (red)

-1
When moving through a Map Card (not your
start or destination) with an aggressive Goblin
(red) at its Portal, you must spend 1 Power FLIP
(move the Token down 1 number) for
EACH such Map Card that your Hero moves
through. Then flip that Goblin Token to its
passive side (green) with the diamond on the
Goblin Token aligning with diamond on the

If you do not have the to move past

an aggressive Goblin (red), you may not
make that movement.

IdlingChoosing to Not Move

You may choose to Idle instead of taking
the selected movement. In doing so, you do
not move a Hero, and play passes to the next
player. In addition, if you have at least
1 Hero in any player's Castle you may gain
1 Health ( ) OR 1 Power ( ) up to your
Maximum Threshold. You only gain this
benefit once each time you Idle, and not for
each Hero at your or separate Castles.

8
Regions on the Map Cards
Each Map Card has two Regions: a Left and a Right Region (the top and bottom
of each side are considered to be the same Region). When you move your Hero
to a Map Card, you must choose on which Region of Map Card your Hero is
going to be placed, either on the Left or Right. Some Regions have actions that
may be taken when you move there. A Hero who starts on a Region like this
must move off the Map Card and back onto it during a subsequent movement
in order to take that Region's action again. The different Regions are:

Temples
Only 2 Heroes from

this Temple and potentially gain Items
(see Exploring Temples, pg. 15). Only two
players may have 1 Hero (each) in any
part of the same Temple at the same time.

Spell Obelisks

spell book. You may attempt to learn the
Spell Book
Spell of that region during the Night
Phase (see Learning Spells, pg. 17). Any
number of players, 1 Hero each, can be in
this Region learning the same Spell.

Mushroom Grottos
Place your Hero on the Grotto, and
1 Hero per player.
then you may immediately take the
Grotto
action that is described. Multiple
Heroes may occupy a single Grotto at
the same time. Heroes in a Grotto do
not perform any actions during the
Night Phase. Any number of players,
1 Hero each, can be in this Region.
9
Regions (continued)

Goblin Portal
Place your Hero on the circle below the
Goblin Token. The Hero is considered
Circle to be Attacking the Goblin, and you
may attempt to defeat it (see Attacking,
pg. 16). ONLY 1 Hero can attack a
Goblin at a time.
Only 1 Hero.

Castles
Place your Hero on a Castle to
immediately gain 1 OR 1 . You
also may gain this if you Idle while one
of your Heroes is at a Castle (see Idling,
pg. 8). Multiple Heroes may be in the
same Castle at the same time.

NO LIMIT to how many Heroes you

Quest Cards or other players may have.

The 3 face up Quest Cards are available for any player to complete,
provided they meet the required conditions. There are two types of Quests:
Movement Quests and Treasure Quests

Movement Quests
Movement Quests are completed by moving
your Heroes in the manner described on the
Quest Card. After moving, when your Heroes
meet the requirements, declare it completed
and take the Quest Card, immediately
gaining the reward listed on it. Then slide the
card under the "Completed Quests" section of
your Player Card to count for final scoring.

10
Treasure Quests
To complete a Treasure Quest, you must complete the Temple listed
on the Quest Card (see Exploring Temples, pg. 15). You can complete
a Treasure Quest during either the Day or Night Phase.
To complete a Treasure Quest during the Day Phase, your Hero
must be the first Hero to reach the last space on the Temple Track.
To complete a Treasure Quest during the Night Phase, you must be the first player to
Rest (see Night Phase, pg. 12), with a Hero on the last space on the Temple Track.
In either case, when you complete a Quest Card, you would then resolve it
immediately by gaining the Treasure Item, taking the Quest Card and sliding
it underneath your Player Card under "Completed Quests," and return your
Hero to your Castle.

Equipping Heroes
When you gain an Item, you must immediately equip it to any of your
Heroes that has an available "hand" for it. Then gain the completed
Treasure Quest Card, if applicable. Each Hero can hold up to two
Items. The Hero who carries the Item gains its benefit as described on the Quest
Card. You MAY rearrange Items amongst YOUR Heroes on YOUR Castle freely. If
you gain an Item but none of your Heroes has an open "hand", keep the Item near
your Player Card. You may exchange it freely with your Heroes on your Castle.

The Quest Card Row

Whenever a Quest Card is taken from the row,
immediately slide the rest of the Quest Cards to
the right and replace the leftmost spot with a new
Quest Card from the top of the Quest deck. If the deck ever runs out, shuffle the
discard pile into a new deck and continue playing. If there are no cards in the
discard pile, the game continues without Quests.
Note: You may only complete one Quest per turn. If moving a Hero would
result in a player completing more than one Quest, that player can only chose 1
Quest Card to take.

Flip the First Player Token

FLIP The first time during the Day Phase that a Quest Card is taken, the
First Player Token flips over to the no Quest Card ( ) side. This is
to remind the players not to discard a Quest Card at the end of the
round (see Resolution, pg. 18).
11
Day Phase completion
After 4 turns have been taken, and 4
Movement Cards have been flipped, the Day
Phase is over and the Night Phase begins.

Night PHASEAdventure aND Resolution

During this phase, players will take turns rolling the 5 Adventure Dice in an
effort to complete three different types of Adventures:
Exploring for Items at Temples (pg. 15)
Attacking Goblins at Portals (pg. 16)
Learning Spells at Obelisks (pg. 17)
Each player should start the phase with their
Adventure Card with the "Adventure" side face up. A
player is considered to be Adventuring until they have
Rested. The player with the First Player Token takes
the 5 Adventure Dice and starts the Night Phase.
The flow of Adventuring is as follows:
1. The player with the dice must first choose to Adventure or Rest:
A. If a player chooses to Rest, they flip their Adventure Card over to
the "Rest" side and pass the dice clockwise to the next Adventuring
player (see Resting, pg. 16).
B. If a player chooses to Adventure (leaving their card "Adventure" side
up), they follow steps 2-4 below.
2. First, the player with the dice rolls them where all players can see them. The
die actions are resolved in the following order:

First: Second: Third:

Take Damage Gain Power Conjure Magic/
Take Damage

3. Then all Adventuring players may simultaneously use these symbols toward
resolving their own Adventures:

Torch and Scroll

Attack Goblin
(for Exploring a Temple)

4. Then the dice are passed clockwise to the next Adventuring player who starts
by choosing to Adventure or Rest. Once all players have chosen to Rest, or are
Exhausted (see the next page), move onto Resolution (see Resolution, pg.18).

12
Adventure Dice Actions:
Take DamageCount up each
rolled. This represents the total damage
dealt to the Adventuring players, and it is equally Clockwise
distributed clockwise starting with the player who Adventuring
Players
rolled the dice and going to each Adventuring player.
Going clockwise, each player loses 1 Health (-1 )
for each damage taken until all the damage is dealt.
For instance, if you roll 3 , you take 1 , the
next Adventuring player is takes 1 , and the You
Adventuring player after that takes 1 . In the case
that there are only 2 players still Adventuring, you
would receive the third, taking 2 total.

Magic Level Damage 1 = -1

The magic level ( ) of the Magic Track may change the amount of total
damage done by a (see the next page). Damage is still distributed 1
symbol at a time.

Defending Damage
You may defend a that would deal damage by spending
2 . This action must happen immediately when each is
taken. This action is listed on your Player Card as a reminder.

Becoming Exhausted
If your Health Token ever reaches 0 , you become
Exhausted. Flip your Adventure Card to the Rest side and
immediately return ALL of your Heroes to your Castle. Set
your Health Token to 6 and your Power Token to 3 for the next
round (regardless of your Max Health or Max Power) and lose 1
Spell Level (-1 ) in the Spell Library (reduce Max Power Token if needed: see
Power Threshold, pg. 17). You can not resolve any more dice actions this round.

Gain Power Each equals 1 (or 0 depending on the Magic

Level, see the next page) Power ( ) gained by the Adventuring
players. Just as taking damage is distributed clockwise 1 die at a time, so is
gaining Power. The first is gained by the player who rolled the dice and then
additional rolled are gained clockwise by the next Adventuring players.
13
Dice Actions (continued)

Conjure Magic or Take Damage

For each rolled, advance the Magic Token forward 1 space on
the Magic Track. This designates the Magic Level, which determines how many
Spells a player can learn (see Learning Spells, pg. 17).
If the Magic Token is on the last space on the Magic Track (Level 3 ), then
each additional rolled represents 1 damage dealt to the players. Damage
is dealt first to the player who rolled the dice and then clockwise to the other
Adventuring players. Also, higher Magic Levels alter the damage dealt by
and Power given by (see below).

The Magic Levels are:

Level 0 (0 ) Players cannot learn a Spell; all dice are resolved normally.
Level 1 (1 ) Players can learn a Spell 1 Level higher than their current
Spell Level (represented by books); all dice are resolved normally.
Level 2 (2 ) Players can learn a Spell up to 2 Levels higher than their
current Spell Level; 's deal -2 in damage and 's do not give power.
Level 3 (3 ) Players can learn a Spell up to 3 Levels higher than their
current Spell Level; 's deal -3 in damage, 's do not give power,
and now 's no longer conjure magic and instead deal -1 in damage.

Torches and ScrollsAll Adventuring players can

use and to advance their Heroes who are currently
exploring Temples to the next space on their Temple Tracks.
A space marked with or requires 2 /2 to advance a Hero
on to it. Each die symbol may only be used by one of your Heroes, so if you have
multiple Heroes exploring Temples, they may not share a single die symbol.

Forge Ahead
During the Night Phase only, any player who is still Adventuring,
and who has a Hero exploring a Temple, may at any time advance
that Hero by 1 or 1 by spending 2 . This can be paired
with any or rolled, but does not have to be. This can be done as many
times as the player can afford, and is listed on your Player Card as a reminder.
14
Exploring Temples Each player may
advance a Hero
Temples hold Legendary Items and Treasure Items that in a Temple 2
your Heroes can use to gain abilities. You start exploring
Temples during the Day Phase by moving your Hero
onto the Temple's entrance.
You may advance your Hero on the Temple Track (4
total spaces) by using and rolled during the Night
Phase, or with the help of certain Mushroom Grottos. If
the next space on the Track shows 2 symbols, they must
be rolled at the same time and both assigned to the same
Hero. You can also Forge Ahead in addition to the dice
rolled (see the previous page), and may advance multiple
Heroes, and advance multiple spaces on the same
Temple Track, if enough symbols were rolled or Forged.
If a player's Hero reaches the last space on a Temple Track during the Day Phase
(through use of a Grotto), that player has completed that Temple and they immediately
return their Hero to their Castle and gain 1 OR 1 . Then, that player can
take the Item and Quest Card they achieved, advance a Legendary Item on its track
on their Player Card, or both, if applicable.
If a player's Hero reaches the last space on a Temple Track during the Night Phase, the
completion of the Temple is resolved only when that player Rests. If a player becomes
Exhausted before they Rest, the Temple is not completed. Their Hero returns to their
Castle, losing their progress in the Temple, even if they were on the last space.

Legendary Items
There are 3 Legendary Items that are not acquired through completing
Treasure Quests. These Items require you to complete two Temples
separately in order (as presented on your Player Card), and when each
Temple is completed, the Item advances forward on its track. Completing
both Temples at the same time does not advance the Item twice. The first
Temple must be completed first, then the Item advances. After completing
the second Temple needed (see above), you gain the Legendary Item, and
may now equip it to a Hero of your choice (for clarification on each Item's
abilities, see Legendary Item Clarification, pg. 20).

This "Sword" is held in the Shadow Temple, but the Ice Temple must be completed first.

Dice Actions (continued)

AttackingAll players may use each Each player may deal 2

to a Goblin they have a Hero
rolled to damage a Goblin that one of their attacking, rotating it twice.
Heroes is attacking. To defeat the Goblin, you must
rotate the Goblin Token 5 times clockwise. You rotate
the Goblin Token once for each rolled . Each may
only be used by one of your Heroes, so if you have
multiple Heroes attacking Goblins, they may not share a
single .
As you continue to damage the Goblin Token, rotate
until the diamond on the Map Card points to the .
Then the Goblin is defeated! Collect the Goblin Token
immediately and keep it next to your Player Card to later count for final
scoring. For each Goblin Token collected, your maximum Health threshold is
increased by 1 (see Health and Power Maximum Thresholds, pg. 17).
If you Rest or are Exhausted before you can defeat a Goblin you are attacking, your
Hero must leave the Portal and return to your Castle. Damage dealt to the Goblin
is not saved. Goblins restore to "full health" if not defeated in a single round.

Resting
When you Rest, either by choice or by becoming Exhausted, you
flip your Adventure Card over to its "Rest" side. If you were just
passed the dice, pass them again clockwise. You can no longer
Adventure or take part in rolling. You now must resolve your
Heroes depending on the Regions in which they are located.
Return your Heroes to your Castle:
All of your Heroes on Portals, Obelisks, or on the last space of a Temple Track
MUST return to your Castle. If you chose to Rest (not became Exhausted):
any Hero on the last space of a Temple Track completes that Temple (see
Exploring Temples, pg. 15), and any Hero on an Obelisk learns that Spell if the
Magic Level allows (see Learning Spells, pg. 17).

Heroes on Castles, Grottos, or on a space of a Temple Track, other than

the last space, MUST remain for the next Day Phase. Unless you became
Exhausted, then all your Heroes return to your Castle.
For each Hero returned, gain 1 OR 1 . If you became Exhausted,
16 set your Health Token to 6 and your Power Token to 3 instead.
Learning SpellS
To learn a Spell means to increase your Spell Level ( ).
Your Spell Level contributes to your Victory Points at the
end of the game. Also for each Spell Level you have, your
maximum Power threshold is increased by 1 (see below).
Players start the game with a Spell Level of "0" (off the Magic
Card). Your Spell Level is tracked using your Spell Token on
the Spell Library (books) located at the bottom of the Magic Card. To learn a Spell,
you must choose to Rest during the Night Phase and two conditions must be met:
1. You must have a Hero on the Obelisk whose symbol matches the Spell (book)
you wish to learn (advance your Spell Token to).
2. The Magic Level, as designated by the progress of the Magic Token on the
Magic Track, must be high enough for you to learn the number of spell levels
you need to reach that Spell.
For example, if your Spell Level is currently "0" (your Spell Token is off the card), and you
wish to learn the Spell, the Magic Level must be Level 1 range or higher, and you
MUST have a Hero at the Obelisk to then advance your Spell Token forward 1 Level
when you Rest.
As another example, if you're currently at Spell Level "0", you can try learning the
or Spells instead, which are 2 or 3 Levels higher than your current Spell Level. To
do this, you must have a Hero at one of those Obelisks and the Magic Level must be
Level 2 or Level 3 .
If the two conditions above have been met, then when you
Rest, you learn the Spell. Advance your Spell Token to your
new book on the Spell Library (this is your new Spell Level), even
if this skips books you haven't learned, and move your Max
Power Marker on your Player Card to your new maximum
Power threshold. If you become Exhausted, your Hero must
leave the Obelisk, and you do not learn that Spell.

Health and Power Maximum Thresholds

Keep track of your maximum Health and maximum Power by marking your
thresholds at the top of your Player Card with the Max Health and Max
Power Markers respectively. Your Health and Power thresholds are as follows:
: 6 + the number of Goblin Tokens you have collected ( )
: 3 + your current Spell Level ( )
Neither may exceed the limit of 10.
17
Night Phase- Adventuring completion
When all players have Rested, by choice or from Exhaustion, move to Resolution.

Resolution
First, all players should have already resolved their Heroes when they Rested
(see Resting, pg. 16). This includes collecting defeated Goblin Tokens, learning
Spells, and completing Temples. Next, players perform the following to set up
for the next round:

Move the Magic Token back to the first

space on the Magic Track. The progress
of the Magic Token resets at the end of
every round.
Flip any passive Goblin Tokens (green)
on Portals to their aggressive sides (red). FLIP

Fill any empty Portals (without a Goblin

Token) with a new passive Goblin Token
(green) from the supply.

Flip all Movement Cards to their active

sides.

If the First Player Token is showing the

side, then the rightmost Quest Card
is discarded to a discard pile. Shift the
remaining Quest Cards to the right, and
deal a new Quest Card face up to the left.
DISCARD
There should be 3 Quest Cards face up to
begin the next round.

Pass the First Player Token to the next

player clockwise with the side face up.

Advance the Round Token to the next

number on the Round Card.

18
Game End
The game's end is triggered at the completion of
the Night Phase of round 5.

Final Scoring
When the game ends, players add their Victory
Points. Players score Victory Points from four different sources:
Total Quests Completed
Total Goblins Defeated (Tokens)
Total Spells Learned (Spell Level)
Legendary Items found
(4 Victory Points each)

The player with the most Victory

Points wins the game! In the event
of a tie, check these tie breaking
conditions in this order:
1. Most Quests Completed
2. Most Goblins Defeated
3. Highest Spell Level
4. Most Items, including Treasure
and Legendary Items.

If a tie remains, tied players

share the victory!

19
Legendary Item Clarification
The Sword is used to help attack Goblins during the Night Phase. For the Hero with the
Sword, you can spend 1 , any number of times, to deal 1 damage ( ) to a Goblin.
This can be used in conjunction with symbols rolled or independently. This action
may be taken even when you're not the player with the dice. However, the Hero must
be at a Goblin Portal to use it. Note: if also equipped with a Bow and attacking from one
Map Card away, the Sword ability does not apply.

The Shield is used to help defend against taking damage during the Night Phase.
It does not matter which Hero is equipped with the Shield. When you receive 1 ,
instead of spending 2 to defend, you only spend 1 . Note: if is spent to defend
1 , it negates all the damage that would otherwise deal -1 to -3 damage.

The Staff is used when you Rest during the Night Phase to help you learn Spells. For the
Hero with the Staff, you can spend 1 , any number of times, to learn the Spell that Hero
is on as if the Magic Token was advanced that number of additional spaces on the Magic
Track. Do not physically advance the token. For instance, if the Magic Token is on the fifth
space, you can spend 3 to act as if it were on the eighth space when you Rest. This allows
you to learn Spells that are a higher level than the current progress of the Magic Track.

as you would in the multiplayer game. That
Movement Card is then flipped and cannot be
used again this round.
Then, randomly deal another Movement Card
face up, giving you two movement options again.
Select one, move, and then deal another card as
before. This drafting and choosing continues until
you have completed and flipped 4 Movement
Cards. Then move to the Night Phase.

Solo Variant (continued)
Night Phase- Adventuring
As you Adventure, you are always the player with the dice. The Magic Track and
how it affects dice actions for each Magic Level are different in the Solo Variant:

These dice actions effects are:

Level 0 (0 ) The first is ignored. The second and all other 's deal
-1 in damage.

Level 1 (1 ) The first deals -1 in damage. The second is ignored.

The third and all other 's deal -1 in damage. The first
is ignored. The second and all other 's give power.

Level 2 (2 ) All 's deal -1 in damage. All 's do not give power.

Level 3 (3 ) All 's deal -2 in damage. All 's do not give power,
and all 's now deal -1 in damage.
Night Phase- Resolution
The rightmost Quest Card is always discarded and other
cards are shifted to the right, regardless of whether the
player has completed one or not.
When flipping over Goblins Tokens to the aggressive side
(red), only 3 Goblins will turn aggressive at the end of each
Night Phase. The player chooses which 3 turn aggressive.

End of Game
If you reach the Victory Point Goal you decided on by the time the five
rounds have ended, you are victorious! If you fail to reach your Victory
Point Goal, the Mushroom Realm crumbles to ruin and you lose.
