Nine mystical tiles sit in a three-by-three ruin grid. Players rearrange, flip, and swap tiles to form patterns shown on cards in their hand, spending a card each time they change a tile. Each completed pattern scores points; players manage their hand as both currency and objectives while planning moves on the shared grid. The game ends when a scoring condition is met and the highest point total wins.
