## Rules

**Two scores:** You have **Running** points and **Banked** points.

- **Running** can go up and down during the game.
- **Banked** is safe and cannot be stolen or swapped.

**Your turn:**

- Answer the question and press **Check**.
- **Correct:** choose exactly ONE action: **flip one tile** OR **Bank now**.
- **Wrong (or time runs out):** no flip, no bank. You must press **End Turn** to pass.
- **End turn** becomes available only after you’ve flipped, banked, or failed.

**Special effects:**

- **🛡️ Shield** blocks the next bad thing that targets you (then it’s used up).
- **🏦 Bank** moves your Running into Banked (Running becomes 0).
- **🎲 Wildcard** gives **+500 or −500** Running (random).
- **Hidden Mirror:** some Bank tiles secretly give a one-use reflection. It only shows up when it triggers.

**Game end:** When all 24 tiles are flipped, everyone’s remaining Running points are automatically banked. Highest Banked score wins.
