Scoring Rules and Rule Explanations
Total score = base power + bonuses − penalties
Reveal your final seven monsters. For each card, start with its base power and apply its printed interaction once. Add the seven card scores together. The highest total wins; tied players share the victory.
Only the seven monsters in your final lineup. Cards in the deck, the discard pool, and other players’ lineups don’t count. Each interaction adjusts the score of the card it’s printed on.
A job is what the monster does in the dungeon: Guardian, Hunter, Trickster, Keeper, or Mini-Boss. A creature type is what the monster is: Beast, Construct, Horror, Humanoid, Pest, or Spirit. Fire Chicken is a Trickster and a Beast. It counts toward both when an interaction asks for the relevant trait.
The point of using dummy text for your paragraph is that it has a more-or-less normal distribution of letters. making it look like readable English.
Yes, if it matches what the interaction asks for. The words “other” and “another” exclude the card you’re scoring. For example, Restless Drinkers gets +2 per other Pest. If your lineup has three Pests including Restless Drinkers, it gets +4 and scores 5.
The card gets no bonus and keeps its base power. For example, Ruby Golem scores 11 with a Keeper in your lineup and 7 without one.
Check your whole final lineup. If Master Moth is your only Hunter, it gets +6. If there’s even one other Hunter, the bonus doesn’t apply. Likewise, “no Keeper” means there are zero Keepers in your lineup.
The card that lists the bonus gets the points. For example, Norbit gets +20 if Spirit Whale is in your lineup. Spirit Whale scores its own interaction as usual; it doesn’t get a second partnership bonus.
Yes to both. Subtract the full penalty, even if the result is negative. A monster with a zero or negative score still keeps its job and creature type, so it can still help or hinder its coworkers.
No. You can score with pencil and paper or use the printable score card for a bit more guidance.

Yes, if at least one of your other cards is a Beast. Ignore Caller Bird itself, then count each distinct creature type among the remaining six cards. If Fire Chicken is there, Beast counts for +2. A second Beast doesn’t add another +2. If Caller Bird is your only Beast, Beast doesn’t count.
