On your turn, click the map to walk your hero (you have a limited number of steps). Pick up 📦 piles for wood and stone, and walk onto ⛏️ mines to claim them: they pay you every turn until the enemy takes them.
Use Castle to build and train troops. Buildings unlock new units; training costs gold.
Walk into a monster, hero or castle to fight. Pick a stance for each group of troops first.
When it's your opponent's turn, type the lines you're given. Each accurate line earns gold, and a miss just lets you try again.
Capture the enemy castle to win. There's no time limit, so take your time.
