So you're all boastful heroes telling tall tales of your adventures in the tavern. You're not heroes, but you talk a good yarn, so with every outrageous boast comes the danger of someone playing a Liar! card and downgrading the boast to something much less impressive (though usually much funnier).

On their turn, each player can draw more cards or make a boast, which must consist of a Deed (what you did) and a Foe (who the deed was done to). Optionally, a boast can include a Scene (where it happened) and a Result (the outcome).

Example of a boast:

Scene: While travelling the frozen wastes and roaming bitter seas...

Deed: I summoned the four elements to vanquish...

Foe: mysterious creatures from beneath the desert sands

Result: And now I've been offered the post of King's Champion

Once a boast is made any other player can replace any part of the boast to downgrade it. For example the Foe could become:

Foe: An angry looking chicken

This means the boast is less impressive and will score fewer points. It also produces some hilarious outcomes.

Family Play:

While this game is given a playing age of 10+, it does contain some mild adult themes.
