 The game is playable by 3 or 4 players who are playing different versions of Lara Croft, each from a different [[Classic]] or [[LAU]] game. The Start Token determines who starts each round and is given to the person who most recently was on an adventure.
-Lara has to find a way through six locations - five Area Tiles and one Climax Tile, chosen at random and only revealed to the players on entering the area. For each location she has to reduce the Thread Level to zero in order to be able to progress to the next tile and thus from start to finish. On her way Lara also is looking for an Artifact (the [[Scion]]); there is only one Artifact, as well as two replicas. In order to finish the game and become the true Lara Croft, one has to be in possession of the real Artifact - which means that there is a fierce competition between the different Laras who are trying to steal the Artifact from one another.
+Lara has to find a way through six locations - five ''Area Tiles'' and one ''Climax Tile'', chosen at random and only revealed on entering the area.

-* Resting reduces Lara's injuries, injuries she may have gained from Assaults by other players, as a result of the Area Tile she currently is staying on, or from played Raid Cards. If Lara is injured it means that the player can hold less Raid Cards in his or her hand. Cards have to be discarded if the player holds too many of them, reducing not only the possibilities to use these cards effectively during the game, but also the possibility to hide the Artifact from the other players among the stack.

+* Action can be used to reduce the Thread Level of the current tile by 2.
 Assault and Steal can only be played against players who are currently on the same tile. All Actions can be boosted with XP a player can gain e.g. through reducing the Thread Level or through Assault. This makes the actions more efficient, e.g. a boosted Assault enables the player to also steal the Start Token from a player.
