Day 27: Rule

The Solution

The rules are taken from the Law of Root (Root is a very good board game). But they are changed! The rule numbers are all slightly off, and so are the rule texts. In fact, the modifications to rule numbers can be correlated with systematic modifications (or "rules") applied to the rule text:

The missing words from the first and last rules cited are RABBIT and GARDEN, but the cited rule numbers require you to apply modification -1.-1.0 to RABBIT and modification 0.0.-1 to GARDEN, which yields the answer RAT DEN.
