Description

In the game Road To Lord, you'll compete with other local lords to win the favor of the king by sending the most desirable gifts. With a playtime of just 10 to 15 minutes, this quick and easy-to-learn game is perfect for 2 to 4 players looking for a fun and strategic experience. Designed by Ryo Nakamura and published in 2023, Road To Lord is a trick-taking card game that requires you to outwit your opponents and send the right gifts to the king at the right time. The king's desires change each time, so you'll need to stay on your toes and adapt your strategy to gain the most trust and ultimately receive new lands. The game is simple yet engaging, with a unique twist on traditional trick-taking games. You can use multiple cards at once to create a huge number, but be careful not to run out of cards before the game ends or you'll face penalty points. With 8 rounds of "Gift to King" to get through, you'll need to balance your strategy and timing to come out on top. The player who gains the most points by the end of the 8 rounds wins, so it's a game of skill and luck that will keep you on the edge of your seat. Whether you're a seasoned gamer or just looking for a fun and social experience, Road To Lord is a great choice for anyone looking for a quick and exciting game.
