Shuffle the Boss deck and randomly deal one Boss card to each player. Players reveal their Boss cards and place them to the right of their play area. All Room cards will be “built” to the left of the Boss card, while acquired Souls and Wounds will be placed to the right.

Set up the Hero, Epic Hero, Dungeon and Spell decks as shown:

Tip: You can also - for example - stack wounds or souls under your Boss Card if you're running out of space on the table.
