Players try to collect as many gems as possible using their 4 followers. This is done by selecting a dice (1-3 or 4-6) and rolling and moving. However, there are interesting movement rules - no jumping over other followers, landing exactly on another gets another move or sometimes a chance to steal a gem. There is also a hand management aspect as to collect a gem you have to have a card for it. Card swapping is done by getting a follower to the right place. Add cobras (blocking pieces) and snake charmers (get past cobras) into the mix and you have a potentially interesting looking game.
