Players start each round with a hand of Intelligence Techniques and Reality Checks. Ten crisis cards are laid out in the center of the table, which have different aspects and difficulty ratings. On their turn, a player can attempt to overcome a crisis by playing a number of Techniques that match the crisis’s difficulty and aspects.

If they still have enough Techniques to overcome the crisis, they take crisis card and earn victory points equal to the number of Techniques used. The game ends when a player has accumulated 10 victory points.
