Official Rules (2022)

• Adventures has 10 tokens in each of 6 player colors.
• These are used with some Kingdom cards and Events.
• Tokens are counter-limited; there is just one of each per player, and players can never have more.

• Some tokens go on Action Supply piles. When gaining a card from a pile with a token on it, just tilt the card being taken to slide the tokens back onto the pile.
• The tokens still function on empty piles, and may be placed on empty piles. You can track what the empty pile was with its randomizer card turned sideways.
• Multiple tokens may be on the same pile; for example the green player might have a +1 Action and +1 Card token on a pile, while the blue player had a +1 Action token on the same pile. When multiple tokens are on a pile, they all function; the green player in that example would get both +1 Action and +1 Card when playing a card from that pile, in addition to the card's normal effects.

Other rules clarifications

• If there is more than one differently named card in a pile, tokens on that pile still affect all cards in it.
• Many of the methods of placing these tokens specify placing them on Action supply piles. Whether a pile is an "Action supply pile" depends on the types listed on its randomizer.
  • For example, the Castles pile contains Action cards but is not considered an Action supply pile; Odysseys and Catapult/Rocks are Action supply piles even though not all cards in the pile are Actions.
  • Inheritance and Enlightenment add the Action type to cards, but not the piles.
  • However, Seaway and Inheritance do not care about the type of the pile when placing the token.

Preparation

• If any tokens are being used, get them out of the box and keep them handy.

Vanilla bonus tokens

• Four tokens give +1 of something: +1 Action, +1 Buy, +1 Card, +.
• These tokens go on Action Supply piles. When the player whose token it is plays a card from that pile, that player first gets the bonus.
• For example a player with their +1 Action token on the Ranger pile will get +1 Action every time they play a Ranger.
• These tokens are used by Teacher and four Events: Lost Arts (+1 Action), Seaway (+1 Buy), Pathfinding (+1 Card), and Training (+).

Other rules clarifications

• Drawing a card due to the +1 Card token happens before anything else that that card does; for example, if you play an Attack with the +1 Card token on its pile while Urchin (from Dark Ages) is in play, you draw a card before trashing Urchin and gaining a Mercenary.

–2 cost token

• The – cost token also goes on an Action Supply pile.
• It reduces the cost of cards from that pile on a particular player's turn.
• The – cost token lowers costs for all purposes; for example with a – cost token on Gear, a player could Transmogrify Copper into Gear.
• The – cost token does not lower costs below .
• This token is placed with Ferry.

Trashing token

• The Trashing token (the one showing a tombstone) also goes on an Action Supply pile.
• This token lets a player trash a card from their hand when gaining a card from that pile.
• This token is placed with Plan.

–1 Card token

• The large –1 Card token is placed onto a player's deck by Relic, Borrow, or Raid.
• It causes the player to draw one less card the next time they draw cards, and remove the token.
• This will reduce a regular draw of a new hand of 5 cards to 4 cards, or reduce the drawing from playing Actions or other effects.
• The token only has that effect once; then it is removed, and the player draws normally until the next time they have the token on their deck.
• The token only applies to draws; it does not affect revealing cards, nor does revealing cards remove the token (reveal the cards, then replace the token).
• The token applies to every card that says "+Cards" or "draw" and to no other cards; except, the promotional card Envoy says "draw the rest" when it should say "put the rest into your hand;" it is not affected by the token.
• The token can go on an empty deck; it still applies.
• There is only one token per player; a player who already has the token on their deck is not further affected by being instructed to put the token there.
• Cards that draw up to a number of cards, such as Watchtower from Prosperity, skip a draw, removing the token, and then keep going, so that the token essentially did nothing.

Other rules clarifications

• If your deck and discard pile are empty and you are instructed to draw a card, you will still remove this.
• If you have no cards in your deck and you are instructed to draw one card, you remove this and you don't shuffle.
• If you draw 0 cards (e.g. you play Watchtower with 8 cards in hand), you don't remove this.

–1 Coin token

• The large – token is placed in front of a player by Bridge Troll and Ball.
• It causes the player to get less the next time they get ; for example if the next the player gets is from playing a Gold, instead of they would have .
• It is not removed by getting +, such as by playing Miser and choosing + but having no Coppers on the Tavern mat.
• It applies to any source of , such as Treasures, Action effects, and other effects like Borrow.
• It only applies once and then is removed, until the next time the player is given the token.
• There is only one token per player; a player who already has the token is not further affected by being instructed to take the token.

Journey token

• The Journey token (the one showing a boot) is face up at the start of a game.
• It can be turned over by Ranger, Giant, and Pilgrimage.
• They turn over the token and then check to see if it is face up or not, and do something based on that.
• The token can be turned face down with one effect and then face up with another.

Other rules clarifications

• You don't flip this token like a coin; you just deliberately turn it over. It tracks that you get an effect every other play; it doesn't randomize when you get the effect.

Estate token

• The Estate token (the one showing a house) is used by Inheritance to mark the card that a player's Estates have turned into.
• Once Inheritance is used, the token sits on a card near a player's play area (but not in play).

Trivia

The pictures on three of the tokens (Trashing, Journey, Estate) were changed for later reprints of the expansion.
