In Seven Dragons, players start with a secret goal color from the seven colored dragons and a hand of three cards. The Silver Dragon is laid on the table as the starting card; at this stage it is a wild card. The playing cards feature domino-like colored panels in the same manner as Aquarius, an earlier game design from Andy Looney. On a player's turn, he draws one card and plays one from his hand. Cards are laid so as to connect matching colored panels. The deck also includes Action Cards such as Move a Card, Zap a Card, Trade Hands, etc. The used Action Cards form a discard pile, and the top card of this pile dictates the color of the starting Silver Dragon; once the discard pile has started, the Silver Dragon is no longer wild. The first player to create a connected territory of seven panels matching her dragon color wins.

Dates and product details are subject to change as new information from the manufacturer is updated. A Game of Shifting Allegiances for 3 to 5 Players This is a fractured and wretched realm. Six once-great Houses can hardly stand, yet are at each other’s throats. Their armies decimated, they turn to you - the Dogs of War - to break their stalemate in exchange for fame and fortune. You and your most treacherous friends will compete, each wielding a unique and powerful advantage over the others. You will raise armies to do these rulers’ dirty works, fight their endless wars, and win at any cost. Allegiances - only as deep as your pockets are lined. Every turn a single play might sway an entire battlefield to victory, acquire new armies, tactics, and gold, turn a hard-won skirmish into a crushing defeat, or hollowly divert attention from your true motives. At the end of three long years of bloodshed, only the Dog of War most steeped in battlefield trophies and influence with the prevailing Houses will stand victorious.
