This is my very first instructable, so feedback is greatly appreciated. Dungeon Crawl came out of one sleepless night I had a few months back. The mind does weird things when it's tired and for some reason that night I latched on to the idea of making a better single player card game than solitaire. After roughing out the rules and play testing the game for a month I feel confident that it's ready for the masses! I hope you enjoy. If you enjoy this game please vote for me in the Toy Challenge 2 contest.

You can either play as a mage or a warrior. Each character
has it's own card set up and play styles.
---------------------------------------------------
Mage: Mages only get half the face value of their HP card.
However they are the only character that has a mana pool.
This is a second stat card drawn after the HP card. Mages
get the face value of the card in MP cards (see “Drawing
your stats” section). In battle, Mages melee attacks are only
worth 1 damage. However, Mages may use MP cards to cast
either an attack spell or a shield spell. Each spell costs one
MP card. When used the Mage takes the MP card and turns
it over, The damage dealt (attack spell) or absorbed (shield
spell) is equal to the face value of the card (EX:a 4 of
diamonds can either deal 4 damage or absorb 4 points of
damage from a monsters attack). Mages may regenerate MP
cards by spending 10 score points per card (see collecting
your score).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Warrior: A warrior's HP is the full face value of their HP
card ( see “Drawing your stats” section). The Warrior also
draws a card from the deck for every melee attack.
The damage dealt is the face value of the card. Warriors
also get a shield card. This is drawn after their HP card.
The shield card absorbs one half of the face value of the
card in incoming damage rounded down. (EX: if the shield
card is the three of diamonds then all incoming attacks
lose 1 damage. An enemy attacking with a 7 of clubs would
only deal 6 damage).

I just ended a hardcore game with 65 points!
Can a mage cast a shield spell twice (i.e. monster swings for 7, I cast a shield spell for 3, but I only have 3 hit points, so I would die unless I can cast a second shield spell to save my butt).
For my HP, as a mage, I drew an Ace. You say it's half rounded down... did I die already?
