Description
Kings & Things is a classic fantasy game where 2 to 4 players engage in a battle of wits and strategy, navigating a modular board composed of hex tiles that changes with every play. This means each game is unique, offering a fresh experience every time. The game's designers, including Tom Wham and David A. Trampier, have crafted a world where players must outmaneuver and outbluff each other to emerge victorious. As players explore and build territories, they'll need to manage their resources and armies carefully, using dice rolling and secret unit deployment to gain the upper hand. With a playtime of 60 to 180 minutes, Kings & Things offers a substantial and immersive gaming experience that's perfect for fans of fantasy and strategy. Despite being published in 1986, the game remains engaging and challenging, with a normal level of complexity that's easy to learn for experienced board game players.
