Angol leírás

Ancient Terrible Things (Third Edition) is a pulp-horror adventure game for 1-4 players, in which you play the role of an intrepid adventurer, exploring a dark jungle river.
Each turn you must travel to a Fateful Location and face an Ominous Encounter. If you overcome the Encounter (using a combination of dice, tokens and cards), you gain points. The object of the game is to be the player with the most points when the game ends at the Unspeakable Event.

Game play involves rolling dice to achieve combinations: runs, pairs, three or more of a kind, and single die showing a particular number or higher. Dice combinations are spent to overcome Encounter cards and/or to acquire the four resources in the game: Focus, Courage, Treasure and Feat.

Focus tokens are used to manipulate individual dice.
Courage tokens are spent to overcome an Encounter before rolling any dice and to gain Secrets from the Yawning Chasm, which are worth points at the end of the game.
Treasure tokens are spent to purchase useful Swag cards from the Trading Post, which give you a permanent game effect.
Feat tokens are spent to play Feat cards from your hand, which activate one-shot effects.

Ancient Terrible Things (Third Edition) is the third implementation of the Dicequest game system previously used in Ancient Terrible Things (2nd Edition) and Konja.
This third edition incorporates the best features and content from all previous iterations and expansion content of the game system into a single definitive experience including new language-independent graphic design and renovated art.
