Overview
No Chinese New Year celebration is complete without the lion dance. In a popular variation of the dance—especially in Malaysia—the lion dancers perform gravity-defying jumps between poles of increasing heights to the rhythm of beating cymbals, gongs, and drums.
Stage the best lion dance to win! Build platforms for your dancers to leap across as they move along the stage. Fill your dance with exciting complicated maneuvers to earn the crowd’s approval.
On your turn, choose a platform available to you based on your current star count.
Add the platform to your stage OR discard it to improve one of your existing platforms.
Use special abilities to enhance your performance and advance your lion along the platforms.
When the game ends, score your dance based on your lion’s position, sets of instruments, pairs of firecrackers and fans, and runs of ascending platforms. The player with the highest score wins the dance!
