mountain treasure hunters

i made my own board game called 'mountain treasure hunters'. here are the rules.

mountain treasure hunters
a board game for two or three players

included:
board
three micro-figures
three power-ups [wands]
twelve monsters
one crystal

first mission - retrieve the crystal
place your microfigure on your camp at the edge of the mountain. youngest player goes first. on your turn, roll the die, and go the rolled number of spaces in any direction except diagonal. you do not have to follow a straight line. players race to the top of the mountain to get the crystal. if you land on a monster, you roll the die again in battle mode. if you land on a power-up, add it to your camp.

battle mode
here is what each number means in battle mode with a monster.
1 or 2 = monster is defeated and removed from the board.
3 or 4 = monster wins, go back three spaces.
5 or 6 = monster is defeated but you are wounded. go back two spaces.

power-ups and player battle mode
you can only land on another player if you have a power-up. if you have a power-up and the other player doesn't, you automatically win and they must go back to their camp. if both players have power-ups, they must both roll. highest number wins, lowest must go back to their camp.

second mission
once a player gets to the crystal, they must race back down the mountain to their camp. while they are doing that, the other players attempt to defeat as many monsters as possible. game ends when the player with the crystal makes it back to camp.
