2) Sneak carefully: throw some treasure to distract the dragon, and try to hide yourself in the shadows to avoid his wrath.

3) Cry like a baby: stay where you are and surrender all your dignity, and some of your treasure, for the rest of the turn.

Eventually, the dragon will either lose interest in the chase, or burn you all to a crisp! Whoever escapes with the most treasure wins the game.

As in the U.S. version, both players have a hand of eight cards, numbered 0 to 7, with each character on the card possessing a special power. Cards are locked in and revealed simultaneously -- with victory usually going to the highest strength card, however special powers can easily turn the tables!
