How to play

1. Your aim is to build houses in the villages of the Fernmark and score the most points.
2. You start with 7 cards, 15 houses, a boat and a cart. Each turn, play one card from your hand and do its action.
3. The Architect moves your boats and carts, then builds houses in villages they touch. A house costs goods and coins.
4. The Reeve harvests a glade and the Steward takes your played cards back to your hand. Other cards trade goods or place new boats and carts.
5. Buy new cards from the market with goods. Every card shows one of seven stars.
6. The game ends when the market cannot fill or when a player builds a 15th house. At the end, each star scores once for each card you own that shows it.
