Totem Hoarder is a fast-paced strategy card duel. Two players assume the roles of rival archeologists and artifact collectors, racing to get a hold of magical Totems. By getting 1 card and playing 1 card each turn, both players assembles teams of creatures on the table in front of them. On a player's turn, they normally draw 1 card from the common pile and play 1 card by putting it into their team - their respective side of the battlefield. Most of the cards in the draw pile are creatures that can be played to perform various actions. But some cards are Totems and follow a slightly different set of rules: If a played Totem in interrupted with a Spooky Skelly, that Totem immediately switches teams! Totems are also "indestructible" - if you attack an opponent's Totem, move it into your own team instead of discarding it. The first player to have three Totems (and no Spooky Skellies) in their team wins!
