Cavern Shuffle: Lair of the Lich

The Premise: Based on the classic Solitaire, Cavern Shuffle is a solo-player dungeon delver game where the player must level up their party in order to uncover the dark twists and turns of the dungeon. Using familiar mechanics, players will uncover useful Items, overcome Obstacles and defeat the Boss Encounter to win! The Setting: Far away from any light, evil grows. Festering in the blackness lurks a darkness that is forming. This version of Cavern Shuffle will meet the Lich King. Haunting the corridors of their decrepit cavern; raising the bodies of those who have come to slay them, to now fight for them. Here we find that our Adventurers’ have uncovered a cursed artefact that belongs to a Lich that has lingered too long. It is up to the party to delve into the darkness, to destroy this power before it grows too big. Setup: The setup is very similar to the Classic Solitaire with the seven piles ranging from 1 to 7 in front of you forming the Dungeon and the rest of the cards in the Explore (or Hand) pile. These will be introduced into the game by flipping up three at a time. The key difference in the setup is that the Boss Encounter will start face up in the first pile of the Dungeon, and the Starting Item will sit above it forming your inventory. How it Works: Play will be centered around forming sequences with your four (4) Adventurers and leveling them up into the Party piles at the top. Leveling up your Adventurers will in turn help you complete different Encounters in the Dungeon until you are strong enough to beat the Boss and win the game! —description from the designer
