Roll for citizens

King at last! But the realm lacks population! So, you promote the merits of your kingdom in rich cities, in workshops of the gnomes and mines of the dwarves, and to Orcs, Fairies and Sorcerer’s Apprentices as well, to win new residents for your realm. Village cards are - sorted by values - laid out in sequence - City - Mine - Workshop - Orc Village - Enchanted Forest, the Penalty cards are stacked face-up and the Citizen cards face-down, one citizen card is laid out openly underneath each village card.

You roll the dice maximum three times. If you achieved the demand of a citizen card, you acquired them and take the card; if the result fits several cards, you choose one. When the Citizen card is beneath a village card of the same color, you take it, too, and have established a new village. Elves, Apprentices, Fairies, Hypnotists and Dragons have immediate or end-of-game special effects.

If you could not achieve a result for any of the citizen cards, you must take a penalty card -  village idiot or dragon - for penalty points at the end of the game and discard the citizen card at the right end of the row, move the remaining cards to the right und add a new card from stack. When one of the stacks is empty, the game ends instantly. You add the victory points on your collected cards, deduct the penalty points for village idiots and dragons and win with most cards, in case of a tie the fewer penalty points decide.

A nice dice do, everybody by himself, only the dragon gives penalty points to another player - a simple game, with a little anger about results, nice for beginners or a filler.
