"Players are Stone Age Tribes. Players create and trade objects of value. Victory: The first player with 50 Victory Points is the winner."

The game is played with a custom deck of cards made up of six suits: Weapons, Tools, Food & Textiles, Containers, Jewelry, and Statuettes.

The players score points by playing melds. There are two types of melds, Kits and Hoards. A Kit is a meld of six cards with one card from each suit. A Hoard is a meld of five cards from one suit.
