Drachenburg Castle is besieged by dragons who keep snatching its residents and are unwilling to release them, so you and your fellow players have been called in to save the day.
By rolling the right colors in Drachenschreck, players succeed in scaring off the naughty dragons, which allows the castle residents to free themselves. But it's not an easy task because gray dice immediately fall into the well. The player who takes risks when rolling and earns the most stars by rescuing castle residents wins.
