This is a board game which is played by 3 to 5 players.
The goal in the game is to make as many "final points" as possible.
Winner is the player who got the most.
Every player starts the game with 5 coins which he can use in the game to buy resources and cards.

In the beginning of the game every player gets miracle cardboard
which has 2 sides - side A and side B.

There are 7 different miracles (they all have side A and side B)
and these sides contain 3 different steps (crystal balls)
which give to the player different benefits.



This game has 3 different epochs - 1, 2 and 3.
For each epoch there there is deck of cards.

Cards are dealt to players and every player has to choose which card to play.
In order to play a card you have to pay the cost of the card.
Some cards are free to play.
The others require to pay coins for them or to have specific resources.
If a player does not have some resource to play the card
- he can rent it from the left or right player around him for 2 coins.
This card for example requires gold and wood resources to be played.

Except played, one card can be sold out for 3 coins or used to build state of your miracle.

When every player is done choosing card - remaining cards are passed left or right (depending on the epoch) and card selection continues until 2 cards are left.

The last remaining cards are thrown away and the epoch is over.
Once the epoch is over - soldier army is compared (red cards).
Every player battles his left and right opponents. Player who wins takes "x" final points and the player who loses takes -1 final point.
In epoch 1 winner gets +1 final point
In epoch 2 winner gets +3 final points
In epoch 3 winner gets +5 final points

Next epoch begins by dealing the next epoch cards to players.
When all 3 epochs are over - the game is over and the player with most victory points wins the game.



The game has 7 different colors of cards.
-Brown cards(resources)
-Gray cards(special resources)
-Red cards(army cards)
-Blue cards(final points cards)
-Green cards(technology cards)
-Yellow cards(profession cards)
-Purple cards(special profession cards)

The symbols at the top of the cards specify what goods the cards are giving you if you play them.

The small icons on the bottom of the card indicate the resources (or coins) needed to play the card.
The small icon on the top right corner of the card indicate can you play it.
If dollar icon is present - this means that you have to rent some resources from your neighbors to play the card (or pay the bank)



Brown cards are resource cards and are used to play other cards.
There are 4 types of resources: water, ore, rock and wood.
In this example the card is giving you two resources - water OR ore and the price for playing it is one coin.
Please not that it does not give them both, but either one of them.



Gray cards are special resources and they are used to play more valuable cards.
These special resources are three: gold, diamond and pearl.
In this example - the card is FREE.



Blue cards (Buildings) are directly giving you "final points".
The more points is this card giving - the more resources it requires to play.
The card in the example is FREE.



Red cards are army cards. They give you soldiers (archers).
They give 1, 2 or 3 soldiers. The card in the example gives 2.
Soldiers are compared at the end of every epoch. Every player battles his neighbors on left and right



Green cards are technology cards. They are a bit more complex.
Green cards give you 3 items - flask, wheel and fire.
You can make many final points because of the green cards but you have to have many of them.
They are scored in types.

Example:
1 flask = 1 final point
2 flasks = 4 final points (2x2)
3 flasks = 9 final points (3x3)
..
Additional 7 points are given per set of the three items.
So if you have 2 flasks, 2 wheels and 1 fire it will give you
2x2 + 2x2 + 1x1 + 7 = 16 final points
If you had 2 fires instead it would give you 26 final points:
2x2 + 2x2 + 2x2 + 7 + 7
(another 7 because of the second set of the three cards)
