About this board game

World of Draghan: Sneaky Ol’ Dragons is a racing game for 2–6 players, with games lasting about 40 minutes. Take the role of a dragon competing in an anniversary race toward a chest filled with treasure.

The race begins with a card-drafting phase. From the cards you draft, you play two cards on yourself and one card on each other player, creating a tricky balance: keeping only helpful cards may also give your opponents powerful ways to advance.

Once every card has been assigned, the effects resolve one by one and the dragons move along the racing track. Many cards move a dragon forward, while action cards introduce surprises and interfere with the progress of the racers.

  • Meet a knight and use courage to defeat him—or move backward if your courage is insufficient.
  • Encounter a novice wizard whose spell can produce an unpredictable result.
  • Watch out for a dragon that stops to smell a flower, sneezes, and blows backward while dragons ahead leap away from burnt bottoms.

Additional race variations change the challenges ahead. Choose the “safe” forest path through the enchanted forest, or race through the mountains while avoiding rockslides and jumping over dangerous holes.

With its shared card drafting, direct interaction, and unexpected race effects, Sneaky Ol’ Dragons turns every round into a tactical test of timing and risk. The box also includes two additional dragon cards for use in World of Draghan: Once Upon a Dragon, the first game in the series.
