Step through the stones of Craigh na Dun and run through the Scottish Highlands with the handsome Jamie. The year is 1743, and the outlaw James Fraser is at your side as you navigate the thrills and dangers of the Highlands. Use your wit, reach the right locations, make the right friends, and gather the items you need, all while keeping Jamie out of the hands of the many who would do him wrong. The gallows await fair Jamie (or worse!) should you fail. Fulfill your destiny and win his heart, only then will victory be yours!

Players select an Event scenario to fulfill. During turns, players can bid to gain cards, move meeples, or reduce Danger. As Jamie moves about the board, he may encounter any of three enemies: The Watch, The Red Coats, and Black Jack Randall. If Jamie should encounter an enemy with no means of escape, the Event is failed and the game is lost for every player. As a co-operative game, every player aims to fulfill the Event in play to win the game. Competitively, the player who has gained the most Favour from Jamie wins his heart and is the true winner of the game. The game ends when all of the conditions in the Event are fulfilled, or if Jamie is captured. Once the event conditions are fulfilled, the player who has acquired the most Favour from Jamie wins the game.
