This is a CCG set, a set of cards which can be used to construct personalised decks, in the style of a collectable card game.
To play Dvorak: Draw five cards each and leave the rest as a draw pile. On your turn, draw a card from the draw pile and play one Thing and/or one Action. (See the full rules.)

This game is based upon The Legend of Zelda Series. Players decide who will be the Good Player, and who will be the Evil Player. For the Purpose of the Game, a new subtype of thing has been created, a 'character'. Characters can attack, as mentioned later in the special rules.

Basic Rules

Characters and actions have two subtypes - Good and Evil. As you may expect, they make up two seperate decks, the Good Player using the 'Good' Deck, and the Evil Player using the 'evil one'. Locations and items may be used in either deck. The Idea is to build your own 40 card deck out of the cards on offer. You might want to build a strictly Zora deck, and have your main card as Rutela, or maybe use a Ganondorf Deck, and base it around his armies. Just try playing about a bit! You may have up to four of the same card in your deck, however, you may only have one of each commander.

Win Conditions

In order to Win, you must achieve only one of these goals:

If your opponent's active commander is destroyed
If your opponent cannot draw a card whenthey must (Remember, You must draw a Card at the begining of your turn!)
If you opponent controls no characters, and you control at least 5

There are also a few cards that allow you to win the game, such as the Fused shadows. Unfortunately, you cannot just play them, you must complete special conditions writtenm on the cards first.

Special Rules

Strength/Endurance

During your turn, you may declare attack on a character with one of your own characters. This is often refered to as 'combat'. When two characters are in combat, the endurance of the defender is subtracted from the strength of the attacker. If the new total is positive, subtract that many hearts from the defender. If a character gets additional strength or ednurance added, it will be shown like this: [+?/+?]. The first +? represents strength, and the second is endurance. So if a 2 strength, 2 endurance; [2/2], character gets [+1/+0], their new total is [3/2] or 3 strength, 2 endurance.

NB: A Character may attack only once per turn

Hearts

All characters have a number of hearts on them, written next to the card name, e.g.- Link {10}/ The 10 shows how many hearts they have. When a character has no hearts left, they are destroyed, and sent to the discard pile.

Life-Force

Each character has a Life-Force Number. This is shown in square brackets next to the tribe and card type. (e.g.- Good - Commander (Hylian) [10]). Most characters have effects that will cost you life-force points, such as feats of magic. When a creature hasn't got enough life-force left to use an effect, it cannot use that effect. If a card has an effect with a number infront of it in square brackets, this indicates how much life-force it will use. (e.g- [3] Destroy a Character). This means you must subtract 3 from the remaining life-force.

Flying

Flying is a common word on cards. Only characters with flying can attack other characters with flying. A Flying character may, however, attack both flying and non-flying characters.

Time Cost

Some more powerful characters cannot be played until a certain number of turns has passed. This is indicated with a number at the start of the card text (it is bold and italicized). Each represents a number of turns. If it has [3] then it cannot be plyed until the 3rd turn, so it is important you include weaker cards, or you will lose through lack of characters. If your active commander's time cost has not been fulfilled, it can still be played. Only your active commander can do this. For information about Commanders, see below.

Types of Cards

Commander

Some Characters have an additional type; Commander. For Example, on Link's Card it says his card type is 'Good - Commander'. Commanders have additional abilities that other cards do not.

Both Players must choose a commander from their deck. This becomes the active commander. The active commander is placed in the command post. Whilst in the Command Post, it cannot be attacked. You may activate one of it's effects or allow it to attack by playing it from the command post. If the active commander is destroyed, you lose the game. All non-active commanders are played as normal.

NB: The command post is just somewhere clear on the table, that shows it is not in play. When you use it's effect or attack with it, you move it from the 'command post' into play.

Race

All characters have a race as well. There are 12 races:

Hylian
Zora
Goron
Gerudo
Deku
Twili
Deity
Poe
Seafarer
Phantom
Minion
Rito

Each one has an advantage and disadvantage to another tribe. They go in this order:
Hylian > Twili > Phantom > Poe > Deku > Zora > Seafarer > Rito > Minion > Goron > Gerudo
The arrows indicate what tribes get the advantage. For example, If a Hylian and a Twili were battling, the hylian would get [+1/+1] as it has an advantage. If a Zora and a Deku were fighting, the Deku would get [+1/+1]. The advantage lasts only for the combat, it doesn't stay permanently.

Deities have not been included in the list. Deities can only be attacked by other deities, and have no advantage or disadvantage - therefore making them some of the best characters in the game. In the event that a deity also has flying, it can only be attacked by deities with flying!

Locations

Locations are another type of thing. There can only be one Location in play at a time. Locations are played into the middle, on top of the current Location. Only the topmost Location is counted as in play and affects all players.

Equipment

Equipment is played onto characters. The effect on the equipment is 'equipped' to the character.

Action

Yes, Actions are still around, and they work just like normal!

Item

Items are a new breed of actions, and work in the same way. Items, however, do not come under a Good or evil slot, and therefore can exist in either player's deck.

Song

Songs are also a type of action, and can only be played if the wind waker is in play. They too aren't good or evil, and can be included in both types of decks.

Response

These are played in response to effects of other cards, and work just like actions.
