Making Checks

In this example, the total difficulty to play the foundation, Bar the Door is 1.

+ 0 (Progressive Difficulty)

+ 1 (Printed Difficulty)

= 1 (Total Difficulty)

Now you need to check a 1 or greater. To make a check, discard the top card of your deck.

Its check value is the blue number in the bottom right.

If that blue number is equal to or greater than your total difficulty, you’ve successfully played your card!

In the example, we checked the attack, Titanpile which has a check of 3.

Cycling

When your deck runs out of cards, shuffle your discard pile to create a new deck, and then remove the top 10 cards of your new deck from the game.

Important

If you ever run out of cards after this process, you’ve exhausted yourself and lost the game!
