How to Play

Overview

The rules of Discordi are simple.

A question will be asked at the beginning of each round. Do your best to pick the answer that you think the other players will pick. Choose the right one and climb to the top.

Take caution though: You must also be careful of sudden solar winds, meteor showers, and ion storms that can slow you down or wipe you out!

Storm Events

A storm could happen at any moment in any game. You have a chance of taking damage from each of the three possible storms if you decide not to buy insurance.

Ion Storm:
Once in a while, these storms can strike, taking out half your IQ points with it!

Meteor Shower:
The most dangerous of all the storms! This one can take off IQ points or knock you around the ziggurat. Proceed with extreme caution!

Solar Wind:
Be careful around these. Meteor showers can smack you to another level. If you fall, you are subject to whatever type of step you land on.

Ziggurat Steps

You will land on different types of steps in the course of climbing the Ziggurat. It is recommended that you get familiar with each kind of step and how much it helps or hurts you.

Increase Step
These blocks are marked green and contain a number. Stepping on this block adds the amount specified to your IQ points.

Decrease Step
These blocks are marked red and contain a negative number. Stepping on this block will subtract the amount specified from your IQ points.

Mystery Step
These blocks are marked with purple question marks. Stepping on this block will cause it to transform randomly into another step.

Stun Step
These blocks are marked blue with electric bolts. Stepping on this block stuns you over the course of one question. Painful!

Sticky Step
These blocks are marked with yellow goop on the floor. After stepping on this block, you will be stuck. The only way to break free is to get 2 or more steps in the next question.

Double or Nothing Step
These blocks are marked with a blue double or nothing sign. As the name implies, stepping on this block gives you double your current IQ points or makes it go to zero.

Turbo Step
These blocks are marked with green arrows. Hit one of these suckers to blast up to the next few steps!

Void Step
This block is the most dangerous of them all. For those few unlucky enough to step on this block will cause the player to fall all the way back to the beginning!
