And in the middle flows a river... a very dangerous river!
You play the role of an intrepid and slightly mad adventurer exploring a dark jungle river in search of secrets.
On each turn, you must travel to a sinister location and confront a disturbing encounter.
If you overcome the encounter (using a combination of dice, tokens and cards), you win secrets.
The aim of the game is to be the player with the most secrets when the game ends with the Inexplicable Event.
The
game involves rolling dice to obtain combinations: sets, pairs, trios
or more, and a single die displaying a particular number or higher. Dice
combinations are spent to overcome encounters and to acquire the four
resources used in the game: Focus, Mystery, Treasure and Feat tokens.
- Focus tokens are used to activate Swag cards to better manipulate dice results.
- Mystery tokens are spent to overcome any encounters when visiting the abyss.
- Treasure tokens are spent to buy useful Swag cards at the exchange counter, which give you a permanent game effect.
- Feat tokens are spent to play one-shot Feat cards from your hand.
