Materials:

• Deck of cards
• Four player pieces
• One d6 
• Four live human beings

Setup:

1. Discard four diamond suit cards, making sure to keep the ace.
2. Shuffle remaining cards.
3. Lay cards face-down in 8x6 grid.
4. Pick a side to be north. 
5. Imagine that this is an island above a pit of lava.

Instructions:

• The goal is to land upon the ace of diamonds and live.
• Players start wherever they want.
• Players have four hit points.
• Players can move to any (any!) face-down cards as long as there is a non-diagonal path from their piece, but cannot retrace their steps.
• Face up cards have filled with lava, which is unhealthy (terminally).
• In a turn, players can flip over as many of the cards between their start and end points as they want, but they must suffer the aggregate of their effects.
• The cards have the following effects:
• Heart, sharp rocks: Lose one hit point.
• Club, rock slide: Lose one turn.
• Spade, slippery rocks: Roll the d6 to determine random movement
• 1: One space north
• 2: One space east
• 3: One space south
• 4: One space west
• 5: No movement
• 6: Reroll 
• Ace of diamonds, wondrous diamond: Gain one win (if other effects don't kill you first).
• Other diamonds, coal: No effect. 
• If the player who flips over the diamond dies, it falls into the lava and no one wins.
