A sequel to 5-Minute Dragon Slayer. This time, a 4-headed hydra is attacking your peaceful fantasy town!

Solitaire game. Each turn you choose 2 adjacent areas on the body of the monster to target, and roll dice. If you want to reroll you must remove one of your possible target areas, or lower your armor value by 1. Then you use your rolled dice to attack a part of the monster you were targeting, or to activate a spell.

Next, a die roll is used to determine which attack the hydra uses against you, and a second die roll to resolve that attack.

Continue until you kill the hydra, or the hydra kills your hero.
