Players compete to earn the most points from a tableau of cards they build in front of them. Each turn, players will select a card from their hand, then players take turns playing their cards according to the number value on the card. The player with the lowest number is the first to draft a new card from a selection of cards available, then the player with the second lowest value and so on. If you played a card with a value higher than the last one on your tableau, you get a sanctuary card. Then you score cards from the end to the beginning, in reverse order from how you played them. The player with the highest score wins.
