As you go up on these you will enhance multiple things for your character such as how many dice you can roll, how powerful other cards are, how many dice you can return to the active state and special unique card abilities for your own character. During all of this monster battling and challenge completing you will be gaining levels on your four different abilities on your player board. Completing challenge cards not only give you luscious end game victory points but also help you battle the big bad monsters that are terrorizing your shores by giving you extra dice during your battles with them. Then you can choose to attempt a Challenge card in your hand that aligns with that specific location by rolling your acquired dice. On your turn you will be placing your mini+token on a particular action space on one of the boards and collecting the items marked on that space along with an extra item based on which board you place on. This is a pure worker placement with added mechanisms.
