Treos
On a stormy night, rumor spreads about a luck potion that one can buy for 20 gold coins on the black market in Treos. As your run of bad luck has been going on for a while, you decide to take your chances. The realm is vast, its forests dark and the roads dangerous. But courier runs pay richly, so you dare to venture outside the protective walls of your city...
This sounds like a flashback to the Middle Ages? Well, come in and find out...
Collect gold coins, deal with gangs of robbers to outmaneuver your competition, and explore remote corners of the realm using runes. Every step you take needs to be well planned. Your opponents are hot on your heels! After all, who knows how many more potions there are? Whoever manages to collect 20 gold coins the fastest, wins the game.

Rules summary
Welcome to Treos!
Head out and explore the world: complete quests and side quests to collect enough gold faster than the others. The first player to collect 20 gold wins the game.
Sunrise: Planning
Each player draws 5 cards from their deck and assigns them face down: One on the bid space: the higher the card number on the bottom left of the card you place there, the earlier you will move during this round. Three on the 3 different day turns: considering the movement options on the cards they place there. The last card may be replaced on top of their card deck or discarded.
Players also place an intrigue marker face down on each of the movement cards for the 3 daytimes (NB: in this BGA adaptation, you just have to choose a space for the "move highwayman token").
Morning, Midday, Evening: movement
According to their turn order markers, each player takes one turn: reveal the movement card and the intrigue marker and then move accordingly the pawn and (if the "move highwayman token" has been revealed) one highwayman.
Reaching new places:
Town
Complete a quest, take a new quest card (if you have a free space for it).
Fort
Get the fort's weapon, if you don't already have it (triggers character-specific power).
Inn
Get a side quest. If you are the first entrant to the inn, you get 1 gold.
Secret Place
Reveal the power of the secret place: get a movement card, get a side quest, or open a Portal. If you are the first entrant to the Secret Place, you get 1 gold.
Portal
Free move to another portal.
Highwaymen
Highwaymen block and prevent you from moving through or onto the space they are standing on.
Move the highwayman using the same movement card with which you have just moved your character token. Again, you may use fewer moves than allowed or not move any highwayman at all. Highwaymen may not move onto or through towns and forts, or any space occupied by a character token. They may, however, move onto inns, secret places, and spaces without character tokens. Any number of highwaymen may share the same space. You must move your character marker before you move the highwayman.
