Attack of the SNACs - HOW TO PLAY

About Pieland: Attack of the SNACs, from BoardGameGeek:

Roll your dice, collect your gear and take a tour of Pieland as you protect the Piesons against the dangerously delicious SNAC's (Spooky Nectar Affected Creatures). Attack of the SNACs is a 2-4 player game that lets players play a light competitive adventure in less time then it takes to bake a pie. Intended to be a bridge game for players new to the hobby, Attack of the SNACs features many familiar euro mechanics in American style trappings of push-your-luck monster slaying with an emphasis on player story telling and food puns! Over several rounds players alternate between a hunting phase, going out into the wilderness to slay dangerous monsters, and a town phase, where players take their spoils from the hunt and improve their characters and complete quests. Once the lands of Pieland has been cleared of monsters, the players count quests, monsters slain, secret quests and extra bonuses to see who will be the next Huntmasters Apprentice. -description from the publisher
