The active player may move up to two pawns. These rules apply:

- a pawn moves forward as many spaces as there were pawns in its starting space. (Click on the pawn.)
- a pawn which lands on a space with a gold or gemstone card collects it. (Click on the card you want.) This ends the turn.
- if the first pawn to move does not collect a treasure, then a second pawn must be moved. The same pawn may not move twice.
-Moving a pawn into the safe zone at the right-hand side ends the turn.

If a pawn lands on one of the dragon's spaces (the ones marked by the white lines) then the dragon moves randomly from 1-3 spaces in the direction it's facing. It moves only in its four spaces; if it hits the end, it turns around and goes back the other way. If the dragon lands on a space with a pawn, it attacks. If there is more than one pawn, the active player decides which pawn is attacked. The owner of the attacked pawn may bribe the dragon with a gold card (see below). At the end of the turn in which a pawn lands in the dragon's spaces, these spaces move one to the right.

The game ends when four pawns reach the safe zone at the right-hand side, or when a player is down to only one active pawn (i.e., four of the pawns [in a 5-player game, 3] have either been eaten or reached the safe zone).

Points are awarded thus:

- Each gold card scores its face value.
- Each gemstone card scores 1 point.
- For each gemstone type, if one player has more of that type than any of the other players do, that player scores 4 points. 4 Punkte extra
- The first player to collect a set of all four gemstone types scores 4 points.
- Each pawn in the safe zone scores 5 points.

High score wins.
