Dungeon Solitaire: Tomb of Four Kings

A solo fantasy dungeon-crawl played with a standard 52-card deck plus one joker. Players explore a dark tomb by resolving a sequence of turns that represent individual encounters: cards are drawn to reveal monsters, traps, doors, treasure, skills, and magic, and are layered into a column while that turn is active. The layout uses a spread with spaces for torches, a delve row (descending turns), a retreat row (ascending turns), and areas for discard, hit points, and a hand that holds treasure, tomb hoards, skills, and scrolls. Torches fuel exploration and must be managed to avoid being lost in the dungeon. The objective is to find all four king hoards and exit alive; final score is the treasure in hand (with a special automatic win for recovering all four kings).
