About Sleeping Dragon

Sleeping Dragon is a quick, exciting card game for 2–6 players. Deep inside a cave, a grumpy, sooty dragon sleeps on a pile of treasure. Taking turns, you sneak in and take a card from the pile. But somewhere in the pile lies the card “The Dragon Wakes!”. Draw it, and the dragon puffs soot at you and you’re out – unless you can sing it back to sleep with a Lullaby. Then you hide the dragon back in the pile yourself, wherever you like, and nobody else knows where.

Along the way, you use clever cards to dodge the dragon: Tiptoe Past, Pass the Dragon, Crystal Ball, which shows the top cards, Earthquake, which shuffles the pile, and Gimme a Gift. And when someone plays a card, everyone else can shout No Way! and stop it. Collect treasures too: a pair gets you a random card from another player, and three of a kind lets you ask for exactly the card you need.

Play with one iPad that gets passed around with a cover screen, so nobody sees anyone else’s cards. Or put the cave on the TV and let every player hold their cards on their phone, with a big No Way! button and a secret slider for hiding the dragon. A game takes about 15 minutes, and it’s easy to learn for everyone aged seven and up.

How to play

  1. Choose one iPad or TV and phones, and type in the names. Everyone gets 7 cards and a Lullaby. The dragons are shuffled into the pile.
  2. On your turn, play as many cards as you like, or none. Then finish by drawing one card from the cave.
  3. When someone plays a card, the others have a few seconds to stop it with a No Way! A No Way! can itself be stopped by another No Way!
  4. If you draw “The Dragon Wakes!”, you must play a Lullaby and hide the dragon in the pile again. No Lullaby? Then you’re out.
  5. The last player who hasn’t woken the dragon wins.

Questions about Sleeping Dragon

How many can play Sleeping Dragon?

From 2 to 6 players. There is always one dragon fewer in the pile than there are players, so the game ends when only one player is left. With 6 players, a few extra action cards are added.

What does the Lullaby card do?

The Lullaby saves you when you draw “The Dragon Wakes!”. You sing the dragon to sleep and then hide it in the pile again – on top, at the bottom or anywhere you like. Only you know where.

How does the No Way! card work?

A No Way! stops a card someone else has just played, such as Tiptoe Past or Crystal Ball. It can’t stop the dragon or a Lullaby. If someone plays No Way! on your No Way!, the first card works after all.

What does the game cost?

DKK 39 incl. VAT for 12 hours of access to the game, counted from when you start it. It’s included in GameBase+. If you play on the TV, everyone else joins free on their phone.

What are the treasures for?

Treasures do nothing on their own. With a pair, you can take a random card from another player. With three of a kind, you can ask for a specific card, and if that player has it, they must give it to you.

Can you play alone?

No. Sleeping Dragon needs at least two players, and GameBase has no computer players. The screen keeps track of the pile and the turns, but never plays itself.
