These codes are called MAGIC CODE (see D).

In this case, the yellow rectangle can represent any group.

B_02: Leave the cards face down on the table. You can make two piles. Let's call them the "SOURCE PILE".
B_03: During the game, the discarded cards are placed face up. They form a pile that we call the "DISCARD PILE".
The SOURCE PILE and DISCARD PILE are placed in the centre of the table.
Players do not draw from the DISCARD PILE.
B_04: When it is his turn, the player draws a card from the SOURCE PILE
He has the choice of playing it, or placing it in the DISCARD PILE or keep it.

1) If a BAD NIGHT card has been placed on the dream pile, it forces each of the other players to wait two turns before placing a new SYMBOL card on their current DREAM. This penalty does not involve the player who laid down the card.
2) A DREAM FAIRY card cancels the effects of the BAD NIGHT card.
LEVEL 4
Played like level 5, except that players choose between the BAD NIGHT and MOONHEAD cards.
LEVEL 5
C_04 Players focus on the MAGIC CODES (letters, shapes, and numbers) and the groups.
The black graphic in a yellow rectangle or purple circle, is called a group. (See D)

- A player is chosen to start the game.
- The 5 cards in the player's hand must not be seen by the other players except under the effects of some bad cards.
- A player must always have 5 cards in his hand when his turn comes.
- When it is the player's turn, they draw before playing.
If the players exhaust the source pile, the DISCARD PILE is shuffled. These cards are turned face down on the table. This creates a new SOURCE PILE The players then continue the game.
C_07: As the game progresses, the player must place SYMBOL cards or FREE cards in front of him, respecting the associations of codes and groups. (see F).
He will lay them down when it is his turn to play.

If he makes another player's dream come true, by placing the WAKE UP card on that competitor's DREAM, he gets 5 points.
If the players wish, there is a vote. (see M)

THE SYMBOL card
Each player's dreams are formed by the illustrations in the centre of these cards.
See example above.
These cards also contain...
D_01: There are numbers from 001 to 130. These are used to number the image.
Not to be confused with the code numbers to the left of the yellow rectangle.
There are also codes (letters, shapes and numbers).
These are used to build dreams at level 5.
Groups are also used to structure.
All these are used to form dreams.
The groups identified in the yellow rectangle provide information mainly about the realm of the image. In the example the diamond belongs to the mineral and object kingdom group.
The group in the violet circle is a request. This card asks for the next card to match the group in its yellow rectangle.
There are 8 ( 1: The animal kingdom _ 2: The plant kingdom _ 3: Objects or the mineral kingdom _ 4: Places (habitats)_ 5: Human beings _ 6: Works of the imagination, history, myths and legends _ 7: Landscapes or events _ 8: Energy).

These cards are shuffled with the other cards at the start of the game.

ONIROO SOLITAIRE
N_01: THE CARDS:
The DREAM FAIRY card protects against the BAD NIGHT and MOONHEAD cards, which, of course, have different effects. The DREAM FAIRY card is valid until the DRAW PILE is exhausted.
When you have a DREAM FAIRY card, place it next to your chosen MAGIC CODE cards that you lay out on your game table. Having two DREAM FAIRY cards on the table is allowed.
N_02: Two DREAM FAIRY cards cancel the effect of the BAD NIGHT and MOONHEAD cards.
Two DREAM FAIRY cards also protect you from the WAKE-UP card when it is not drawn at the right time.
However, you must return the two DREAM FAIRY cards to the DISCARD PILE when used.
Drawing a BAD NIGHT or MOONHEAD card requires you to place the cards in your hand into the DRAW PILE, even if they are good for your game.
MAGIC CODE: These cards are used to direct the game. They are used for ONIROO SOLITAIRE level 3 only.
LETTER CODE: A, B, C, D, E, F
SHAPE CODE: SQUARE, CIRCLE, + SIGN, STAR, TRIANGLE.
NUMBER CODE: 0 to 9.
Shuffle your cards. Hold or place your deck of cards face down on the table.
You may divide your deck into two to make handling easier.
Draw two cards at a time, taking only the first of the two. Unless you have managed to place the top card of your draw.
WAKE-UP card: The game ends as soon as this card is drawn.
The three levels of ONIROO SOLITAIRE are played without the FREE card.
Only use the NUMBER MAGIC CODE cards and SYMBOL cards.
Draw a SYMBOL card from your DRAW PILE. The number on the card indicates the numbers you need to find to complete your game. For example: 067 the bridge. You must then draw the numbers 0, 6, and 7. In order to increase the difficulty level.
If you no longer have DREAM FAIRY cards to counter the WAKE-UP card, the game ends when the WAKE-UP card is drawn.
LEVEL 2 ONIROO SOLITAIRE: A bit of the opposite of level 1. Find a SYMBOL card whose number you know from three MAGIC CODES number.
First, find the MAGIC CODES that suit you.
Do not use FREE cards and LETTER and SHAPE MAGIC CODES.
Draw cards two at a time until you have a NUMBER MAGIC CODE card (a card with a number and a small sleeper).
You can place the NUMBER CODES in any order you choose. The order you choose remains the same as you go through the pile.
Example: You managed to place the numbers 0, 5, and 8 in front of you, despite the BAD NIGHT and MOONHEAD cards. You need to find the number 058. On the cards in this case, it is the night sky (058).
N_15: The game stops when the WAKE-UP card is drawn. Or when you have completed this challenge.
If you want a double digit, e.g., 22. Take any drawn card and place it face down next to your number code. This is your doubled number.
LEVEL 3 ONIROO SOLITAIRE
LEVEL 3 OBJECTIVE: Try to obtain the three types of magic codes and the SYMBOL card corresponding to the three MAGIC CODES. This must be done before drawing the WAKE-UP card, and also despite the negative value cards.
Play with all the cards. Use the FREE cards if you wish. It will be easier as all the codes are represented on them.
If you draw a MAGIC CODE card; a card with a code "0 to 9, A to F, or one of the shapes Star, Square, Circle, Cross, or Triangle," place this card in front of you. If it is of your choice.
During SOLITAIRE 3, try to match the three types of MAGIC CODES with the number of your chosen SYMBOL card. If you draw another MAGIC CODE card, you can choose to exchange one for another. (e.g., letter for letter, number for number, etc.)
Try to get a SYMBOL card that matches the three codes you would have placed on the table. For example, you found the following codes: letter A, shape +, and number 5, which corresponds to the card 023, the centaur.
