Choose a character and pick up your starting deck, which consists of the basic cards that everyone receives at the beginning of the game. Your goal is to enter the dungeon, collect valuable artifacts and get out before you're caught by the dragon.

On your turn, play cards from your hand to gain movement skills, special skills and a draw resource. Use movement skills to move around the dungeon, exploring new rooms and facing obstacles.

With the buying resource earned by cards played, acquire new cards from the market, strengthening your deck for future turns. Choose cards that align with your strategy, whether it's acquiring more treasure, fighting monsters or gaining special abilities.

Watch out for the Clanks! Every time you generate noise, you place cubes in the Clank! area. When the dragon attacks, these cubes can be pulled out, and if their colors are removed from the bag, you lose life points.

Look for artifacts in the dungeon - the deeper you go, the more valuable they are. However, staying longer increases the risk of being caught by the dragon. Once you've found an artifact, you can leave for the surface or stay in the dungeon to look for more treasures.

The match is won by the player who accumulates the most treasure and survives to tell the story. If a player is incapacitated in the dungeon, they still score points, but only to a limited extent. Plan your way out carefully to optimize your points and successes in the adventure.
