Ending the Game
Reference
As soon as a player has fulfilled their Villain’s Objective, the game ends and that player is the winner!
Note: Some Objectives are only fulfilled at the start of the turn, as stated on the Villain’s Board.
Realm
All cards in play on either side of your Board are considered to be in your Realm. A card only affects other cards in the same
Realm. No card in one Villain’s Realm will ever affect a card in another Villain’s Realm.
Locked Locations
Some Villains have locations that are locked at the beginning of the game, but which may be unlocked during the game.
A locked location is denoted with a Lock Token.
A Villain cannot move to a locked location. In addition, cards cannot be played to, moved to, or moved from a locked
location. However, if a card is at a location that later becomes locked, the card’s Ability, if any, remains in effect.
“Playing” Cards and “Moving” Cards
Playing a card refers to adding a card to a Villain’s Realm, either from your hand or from a Villain or Fate deck.
Moving a card refers to taking a card that is in your Realm and moving it to a new location. If a card’s Ability is triggered
when it (or another card) is played, the Ability is not triggered if it is moved. Likewise, if a card’s Ability is triggered when it
(or another card) is moved, the Ability is not triggered if it is played.
“Revealing” Cards and “Looking at” Cards
If a card instructs you to reveal cards, either from your hand or from your Villain or Fate deck, turn the cards over so that
all players can see them. If a card instructs you to look at cards, either from your Villain or Fate deck, you may look at them
privately, keeping them secret from the other players. If you ever need to reveal or look at a card from a deck when it is
empty, shuffle the discard pile to form a new deck.
“Finding” a Hero
If a card instructs you to find a specific Hero and play them, you must take the specified Hero from wherever they are and
play them. When finding a Hero, first check to see if they are already at a location in the Realm. If so, remove them from
their location and then play them to the specified location. If the Hero is not already in the Realm, search the Fate discard
pile and play them. If they are not in the Fate discard pile, search the Fate deck, play them, and re-shuffle the Fate deck.
