About the game
High atop the mountain, a single dragon looms over a peaceful village. Each year, the local craftspeople placate the dragon with an impressive gift to ensure the village's safety. Help out by making sure each villager has what they need to deliver the final gift! Connect roads and use transports to supply villagers with the goods they need. Create the final gift to please the dragon and win! Build your map by adding new cards, connecting along road lines. Deliver goods along existing roads or use a special transport to enable unusual routes. As you fulfill villagers’ needs, they’ll offer higher-grade goods. Put together all three goods for the dragon’s gift to show your full appreciation!
