The Princess Bride Adventure Book Game comes with challenges players will have to get through, a gorgeous game board, and rules for each game chapter. When it is your turn, you complete the following list in order.
Move – you may move a single character one or two spaces, or two characters a single space each.
Storytelling – you may trade one card, complete a challenge, play Special cards, discard any number of cards AND move one character a space per discarded card, or use a Miracle to draw three cards from the Story deck or one card from the Special deck. You can complete any or all actions in any order.
Draw – draw two cards from the Story deck.
Plot – while telling the story, you’ll be interrupted by the Grandson. Discard the top card from the Plot deck and refer to your chapter’s Plot Table to see what happens. Depending on the chapter, something unique will happen.
Discard – discard down to six cards in your hand.
To pass each of the six chapters, players will need to complete each chapter’s challengers before moving on. Players also have the chance to earn special rewards such as picking a card from the Special Deck that can be used instead of a story card. You can also snag up some miracles from the board that anyone from your team can use anytime.
