About the Game

Bomb the Dragon is a celebration of the Hakka people held in Miaoli, Taiwan during the Lantern Festival. Players in the game bomb the dragon by throwing firecrackers to win the blessings for themselves!

To play, shuffle the 19 dragon-body cards, lay out as many as dragon-body cards as players face up between the dragon-head card and dragon-tail card, then you shuffle the 45 firecracker cards and deal three cards to each player.

Each turn, players simultaneously choose and reveal a firecracker card from their hand, then place the firecracker onto the bomb zone by the dragon-body cards in order. When the total firepower next to a dragon-body card equals or exceeds the vitality point on that card, whoever played the most recent card wins it. If not enough dragon-body cards are available to fill up the vacancies of the dragon body, the round ends immediately. Record each player's blessings (points).

Continue playing rounds until someone has collected at least 50 points.
