You’re forced to draw at least two more cards Map – Draw three cards from the discard pile and play one Mermaid – No ability but worth more points (Mermaids are numbered 4-9 instead of 2-7) Oracle – Look at the next card before deciding if you want to play it Sword – Steal an opponent’s previously banked card and play it Many of these work well together like using a Hook to re-play a Sword from your hand to steal an opponent’s Chest to go with your Key – racking up huge points by playing abilities well and not solely through the luck of the draw As soon as the deck is depleted players total up the value of the highest card they’ve banked from each suit High score wins Players 2-4Suggested ages 8 Playing Time 10-15 Minutes
