The game is a very simple, quick game which involves picking the right trait and using special abilities related to those traits. Players play cards to face off against each other using one of the traits, then roll the relevant polyhedral dice to determine the victor.

All the game rules fit on a single (double-sided) card, so it is very quick to learn and teach. —description from the publisher
