Together with your friends, you sail towards a mysterious island, in search of old relics. Various researchers and scientists have asked you to bring back valuable treasures for them.

Set up of the game
Place the Tool tokens on the Ship in the centre of the table.
Take the 10 Treasure cards that correspond to the mission and the desired difficulty level. (There are 4 types of missions, and 3 levels for each.)
Place the Island board in the box and place the box next to the Ship. Randomly place the Treasure tokens face down in the corresponding indentations of the Island board (on 3 levels).

Time to play!
One after another in clockwise order, players try to locate Treasure tokens that correspond to the face-up Treasure card.
It's a cooperative game, so don't forget to discuss with the other players!

First, choose an available Tool on the Ship. The numbers next to the locations on the Ship are multipliers that indicate how many times you may perform the action. Tools correspond to certain parts of the island: beach, jungle or volcano.

Next, flip an accessible Treasure token of your choice face up.
You’re allowed to keep searching in the hole you started at, or to choose a different space.
After you’ve flipped 1, 2 or 3 Treasure tokens face up, flip any tokens that weren’t collected face down again on their respective spaces. The Tool is discarded. Now, the player to your left takes their turn.

If you flip a Treasure token that corresponds to the Treasure card, you collect it! Well done! Reveal a new Treasure card and start looking for the next Treasure.

End of the game
- You managed to collect all 10 Treasure cards.
Congratulations! You won: now it’s time to calculate your score.

- There are no Tools left on the Ship, and there’s at least one
Treasure card remaining. Too bad! Better luck next time... or maybe try again right away?!

Your goal in Mondscheinhelden, a.k.a. Moonlight Castle, is to rescue as many gems as you can from a wizard that's trying to pilfer them from a castle. Whoever ends up with the most gems wins!

The gems are on tiles that are shuffled, stacked, and placed inside a cardboard castle. Using a plastic slider that goes under the bottom edge of the castle, players push out tiles to create a row of gems that the wizard is levitating away from the castle.

Each player starts with four colored pebbles. On a turn, you move your figure to a new space on the path of tiles, paying a pebble of the color space to which you move. You then draw pebbles from the bag based on the space to which you moved. Finally, if you can pay pebbles exactly matching the number and color of the gems depicted on the tile, you claim that tile. (You have tricked the wizard into stealing pebbles instead of gems.)

Reveal the bottom of the tile to see whether nothing happens, a number of new tiles are revealed, or you take another turn. Continue taking turns until the magic path tile is revealed from the castle. At the end of that round, count your gems to see who wins.

To win Patatrap Quest, you need to be the first player to successfully attack the "Big Bad" in the castle three times.

The castle consists of a wall of mirrors surrounding a central pillar. On a turn, roll the dice, then move a distance equal to either die face or the sum of the die faces. When you land on a space in the castle, your figure pushes down a lever and whatever is depicted underneath that lever is then visible in the mirror. Sometimes you get to collect equipment, sometimes you must swap planks, and sometimes you do other things.

When you have the right equipment and can access the staircase to the top of the pillar, you can confront the Big Bad. Draw the topmost token of its stack, then look at the back of it in secret. If you can discard the item depicted, you collect that token; otherwise, you're ejected from the castle and must start moving in again. The first player to collect three tokens wins.

Patatrap Quest includes five Big Bads, each with its own stack of tokens.

A birthday party hosted by the mafia boss was roaring fun until the police knocked at the door. While getting away on his private helicopter, he dropped his precious wallet. Now what will you all do with it?

In Wallet, players are the guests rummaging through the wallet looking for an ID (that'll make them seem innocent in the eyes of the law) and some cash (you can't take too much — it will look suspicious!). During your turn, you choose one action: take a card from the wallet, hide a card in the wallet, flip a timer card (bringing the round closer to its end), or buy an ID card. You may also use your special cards to spoil your opponent's play. Strategy, bluff, unexpected events... You need to have a perfect hand as fast as you can — try to be both innocent and rich by the end of the round!

Will you be found guilty or manage to escape the hand of justice with the most cash?

Are you ready to have a Happy Party? I hope so, but you'll need to blow out the right candles in order to be happiest in the end.

Each player starts with four face-down tokens in front of them, and they need to fill the four spaces on their personal gift board in order to win.

On a turn, a player rolls the two dice, then tries to blow down candles on the cake that match what's shown on the dice. If they don't, whether by not blowing down enough candles or by blowing down the wrong ones, their turn ends. If they blow down the right candles, they can reveal tokens in front of themselves or other players, and if those tokens match the images on their gift board, they claim that gift.

The first player to fill their gift board wins!

In Targets, players don't roll their dice, but flick them from the top of a tower to try to land them on targets placed in the playing area. Have the highest number on a target, and you claim it at the end of the round — unless someone knocks you from that target first. If your die lands showing the same face as another one of your dice, call out quickly so that you can reclaim one of those dice, then shoot it again in the same round.

When you claim targets in a round, those targets are placed under your dice stack and opponents can try to land on them in the subsequent round to steal them from you. Any targets not stolen this way are now safe from future theft.

The first player to claim four targets wins!
