To the Griffon Fonffon

1. Take the contents out of the pouch:18 guest and bar cards, as well as the small rulebook.
2. Form your guest deckface down.
3. Place the area representing the inn(rooms and bar) in front of you.
4. You are ready to manage your inn for the night!

Each turn represents a sequence of customer management:

1. Send a sleepy customer to their room.
2. Check that all present customers are sleeping peacefully: if something disturbs them (noise, fight, stench…), they might make a scene or leave the inn!
3. Welcome a new customerto the bar and ensure the atmosphere remains bearable.

Customers have specific demands and symbols: if three identical symbols are found in the bar, this creates disturbances that can lead to a cascade of departures, complicating your management.

The game continues until the customer draw pile is exhausted.

At the end of the game:

• Count thenumber of customers still in the inn,not including those at the bar.
• Victory: you have7 or more customers in the innat the end, proof that your management has successfully satisfied enough regulars.
• Defeat: you have fewer than 7 customers, which means your Griffin Inn failed to retain its clientele.
  

This simple but demanding mechanic offers afeeling of progressive puzzle-solvingwhere every placement counts.
