About the game

Everyone knows dragons love hoarding gold in their caves and laying waste to any would-be intruders. It turns out dragons also have designed their own game using the leftovers... To play, take turns rolling a fistful of pieces out across the table and flicking your Shield through the scattered Skulls to earn (or lose) points. Hit the treasure chest to bank those points and add them to your total. First player to reach 21 points wins. The game uses most of the same basic rules as Dragoon: Heads Will Roll but has some additions, changes, different physical components, and new art. If you dig D:HWR you'll be way into this. -description from designer
