Medieval Realms: The card game is played over a series of turns. On each round, all players simultaneously choose a card from their hand to play an another to discard.

The player who placed the higher card chooses to pick 1 card from the river of cards of the table with a number higher than the card he played. Then the rest of players do the same from higher to lower card played.

Cards can score victory points for resources, set collections, great characters and majority cards played.

After 6 rounds, the players will have a tableau of 12 cards and will start scoring. The player with the most victory points wins.
