Lanzeloth

Lanzeloth is a card game where every player builds a knight in front of them consisting of five cards (head, lance, shield, body, shoes) and an additional horse card. All cards start face down. All body parts have different strength values from zero to five and the horse card has special powers for the tournament round. On your turn you either draw a card from the stack or take the top card from the discard pile. Then you either replace one of your cards with the new card of the same type or discard the card to use the card's special action to look at cards, turn cards face up or switch cards with other players. If one player announces a tournament, all other players get one last turn. Then all players resolve the horse's abilities and ands compare the total strength value of their knights. Then the winner gets trophies depending on the power difference to the second-strongest player. All cards will be reshuffled and a new round starts. First player with a set amount of trophies, depending on player count, wins the game. —user summary
