Super Dungeon Explore: Forgotten King – Rules Preview – Backpacks and Princess Coins


Time for a rules preview. Today we will cover the Backpack and using princess coins.

BACKPACK

The backpack is where the party stores items gained during the game that can be used by the entire party, including: princess coins, dungeon keys, pets, and unequipped treasure cards. Whenever the party adds an item to the backpack place it on the backpack pile.

All items in the backpack may be used by any Hero in the party, no matter where they are in the dungeon.

PRINCESS COINS

Each time a spawning is destroyed place a princess coin in the square the spawning point occupied. A Hero may pick up and add a princess coin to the party’s backpack by using the Pick Up basic action.

At the beginning of any Hero’s turn they may choose to spend one or more princess coins.

For each princess coin spent, choose one Hero that is either on the dungeon map or that has been destroyed. Remove all wound and status effect counters from the model’s card.

If the princess coin was used on a destroyed model you may return it to the dungeon map. The Hero may be placed adjacent to the start marker or adjacent to the skull token where it was destroyed.

Once the effects of a princess coin has been resolved return it to the counter pile.

DUNGEON KEYS

Whenever a mini-boss is destroyed place a dungeon key token in the last square the mini-boss occupied. A Hero may pick up and add a dungeon key to the party’s backpack by using the Pick Up basic action.

Dungeon keys may be spent to use the Unlock Treasure Chest basic action. In addition, some game modes of Super Dungeon use dungeon keys for other unique actions.

PETS

Any pets that do not have a master are kept in the backpack.

EQUIPMENT

Drawn loot and treasure cards are called equipment. Each time the party gains an equipment card it is placed in the backpack.

The party may draw one card from the Loot Deck for every minion or denizen destroyed during the turn, up to a maximum of three cards.

Treasure cards are drawn when a Hero uses the Smash Chest, Unlock Chest, or Pick Lock basic actions to open a treasure chest. In addition, the party may draw one card from the Treasure Deck for each mini-boss or boo booty destroyed.
