Description

In King's Pouch, you're a feudal lord vying for supremacy in a medieval kingdom torn apart by internal strife. With the king's death, powerful dukes and counts are fighting for control, and you're one of them. You'll use your citizens to develop your lands, build armies, and accumulate wealth, all while navigating the complex web of influence and corruption. As you build your pouch of citizens and resources, you'll make tough choices about how to expand your pool and earn prestige points. With several types of citizens and multiple paths to victory, you can choose to be a peaceful protector or a ruthless warlord. The game takes place over nine rounds, with scoring opportunities at key milestones, and the player with the most prestige points at the end wins. Will you emerge victorious and write your name in history, or will corruption and failure hold you back?
