You have been hired to build a henge atop a barrow within a single year, taking one turn for each month. Using the runes to guide you, create different stone configurations and place them on the barrow mound.
There are three different types of placements: arches, standing stones, and round stones. There are three different colors of stones: exotic blue, polished white, or common dark gray.
You play by pulling any of the 24 Elder Futhark runes out of a bag. Each turn drawn two runes. The first rune drawn determines the placement, while the second rune drawn determines the color.
There is a chart provided for using dice: one eight-sided die and one six-sided die, if the player doesn't have access to any runestones.
