Description

In King Thief Minister, 3 to 6 players take on the roles of six iconic characters from throughout human history, each with their own unique abilities and playstyles. The goal is simple: collect the most coins by dividing the treasury among players, but the journey is full of twists and turns. With easy-to-learn rules, this 10-30 minute game is perfect for a fun and lively game night with friends. Each player starts with 5 coins, 3 in hand and 2 in the treasury, and the player with the King card gets to start the game. As players take their turns, they can rotate the cards, pay a coin to peek at their own card, or claim a character and act out their abilities. The King demands to know who the Minister is, the Thief steals from their neighbors, and the Minister shuffles cards in secret. The Executioner tries to take out other players, the Sheriff collects taxes, and the Peasant tries to guess everyone's roles to claim the treasury. With its blend of memory, role-playing, and take-that mechanics, King Thief Minister is a thrilling and unpredictable game that's all about bluffing and strategy. When the treasury is empty, the player with the most coins wins, making every move count in this fast-paced and exciting game.
