Players command squads of moles contesting a single fertile field set in 1916 amid the Great War. On each turn, a player either deploys a mole by playing a card or moves existing moles, using cards from a private hand or a shared public row to take combat, movement, expansion or special actions. Players score points by creating uninterrupted lines of sight between their moles; the deck composition (seven card types and many combinations) shapes each game’s tactics. Play continues until a hidden Peace card ends the conflict, then players receive bonus points for category majorities and sets of cards they used.
