You should familiarize yourself with the multiplayer rules before reading the Automa rules. When playing against Automa, you will always follow the multiplayer rules. Automa, however, plays by a simplified ruleset.
This rulebook explains how Automa overrides the multiplayer rules. Other than those exceptions, the game plays like a normal two-player game.
• Automa will not get a player mat and never gains coins, eggs, or resources.
• Automa does not need to pay coins, eggs, or resources for the actions she takes.
• For anything you do that involves other players, Automa only participates as defined in this rulebook.
