Welcome to the World of River Dragons!
Hey there! Today we’re diving into the exciting game of River Dragons, where the race is on to reach your very own village. It’s all about making your own path and beating your opponents to the finish line. The first one to arrive at their village wins the game! Ready to jump in?
Getting Started
Alright, here’s how you set things up. First, place the gameboard right in the middle of the playing area. Make sure everyone can see those islands! Next, put the stones beside the board – that’s your reserve. Now, each player picks a color that matches one of the starting villages.
The youngest player gets to be the starting player and keeps the starting player card in front of them. As each turn passes, the card gets passed on to the next player, going around in a clockwise direction. Now, remember to grab yourself a pawn, six planks, and thirteen action cards for the game. And that’s it! You’re all set to start the adventure!
GAMEPLAY
When I play the game, there are two main parts to each turn, the planning part and the doing part. First, I have to plan my moves by choosing five action cards from the ones I have. These cards represent the actions I can take during my turn. Once I’ve chosen my cards, I place them in front of me and they can’t be changed.
Next, it’s time to start doing the actions. Everyone reveals their first card at the same time and we all do our first actions. We go around in a circle, starting with the player who went first. Once we’ve all done our first actions, we move on to the second actions. We keep going like this until we’ve done all of our actions.
When all the actions in a turn are done, the turn is over. The player who started the turn will pass the starting player card to the player on their left. As for the action cards used during the turn, players can collect them and use them again if they want to. A new turn begins with the programming phase, followed by the action and resolve phase.
The game goes on until someone reaches their destination.
END OF GAME
The game comes to an end when a player reaches their destination. And the player who reaches their destination first is the winner!
