Game Components

  • 1 game board (Игровое поле)
  • 16 path sections with hidden metal chips (Участков тропинки со скрытыми в них металлическими чипами)
  • 16 task tokens (Жетонов с заданиями)
  • 16 lilac lucky crystals (Сиреневых счастливых кристаллов)
  • 1 large magic crystal, with a magnet (Большой магический кристалл, с магнитом)
  • Rules

Setup

  1. Place the game board on the table and set the magic crystal so that its colours match the corners of the board.
  2. Now distribute the path sections randomly into the recesses, and place a lilac lucky crystal next to each of them.
  3. Shuffle the task tokens thoroughly and lay them face down next to the board.

Object of the Game

On your turn you move the magic crystal along the path from one section to the next. The crystal shows which goblin can be found on which section. Whoever remembers these hidden places well has a better chance of finding the treasure.

The goal of the game is to be the first to find 4 lucky crystals.

How to Play

  1. Each player takes a task token and places it in front of themselves face up. This token shows which crystal you must find now. Players take turns. The youngest player begins.

  2. On the first turn, take the crystal from the centre and place it on one of the four path sections nearest the centre. Before moving the crystal, name the goblin (or the colour) you think is hiding here.

  3. Wow! The pendulum in the crystal, as if by magic, starts to swing. Now you can see which goblin is hiding here!

    Important: Make sure the magic crystal is not turned while it is being moved. The colours in the magic crystal must always match the corners of the board.

Guessing correctly

If you guessed correctly, continue moving and place the crystal on the next path section. But do not forget to call out the name (or the colour) of the goblin beforehand. Each time you guess correctly, you keep moving.

When you reach the lilac lucky crystal you are looking for, take it and place it in front of you on your task token, then take a new task token. Then the turn passes to the next player.

Guessing incorrectly

If you guessed wrong, your turn ends and the magic crystal stays where it stopped. Now it is the next player's turn to move the large magic crystal to the next path section, calling out the name (or the colour) of the goblin beforehand.

If the magic crystal is already standing next to the lilac lucky crystal you are looking for, you simply take it, and the turn passes to the next player.

End of the Game

The player who first collects 4 lucky crystals becomes the owner of the goblins' treasure and wins the game.

Additional Rule

If any player finds a lucky crystal, that player may turn any other path section a quarter turn. And now, do you know which goblin is hiding there?
