Players take on the role of one of the Zodiac animals. Each animal has a prefered meal and special abilities. The rotating steamer table is the main feature of this game and it moves every turn, making two steamers available to each player and one shared steamer. Fate and fortune cards can benefit the player or harm an opponent. Fate cards are drawn at the beginning of the round(starting with round 2) and affect the group. End of game is triggered when either the Fate Deck is empty or when the Steamer counter reaches 0. The player with the most Hearty Points wins.
