Feint, bluff, and challenge correctly to become an elite magical duelist.

Each turn the Leader picks a Challenger and targets them with a spell. The Challenger plays a counterspell and declares whether it is stronger or weaker than the Leader’s spell.

The Leader must decide whether to believe the Challenger or not. The Challenger then reveals their card, resolving any revealed effects.

If the Leader guessed correctly, they win the duel and keep the Leader role; otherwise they lose the duel and the Challenger becomes the next Leader.

Play until someone wins or loses 3 duels. The first player to win 3 duels is the winner! Otherwise, if any player loses 3 duels, all other players win!

Raising the dead is fraught with risk and peril, yet those who master it find themselves with more power than they could have imagined.

Expand your dueling circle with necromantic allies and an extra duelist. This 6-card expansion introduces 5 new spell cards and 1 book card. With the ability to add a 4th player, there's even more competition. Will you risk a shift in power to raise the living dead?

Add the expansion cards to the base-game cards and perform base-game setup, creating a column of 4 books and a deck of 20 spells. Play according to the base-game rules.
