Description

In Greedy Kingdoms, you're the ruler of your own medieval kingdom, competing head-to-head with your opponent to build the ultimate symbol of honor - the Royal Palace. With a playtime of just 20 minutes, this game is quick to learn and fast-paced, making it perfect for a fun and casual gaming session. The rules are easy to pick up, so you can dive right in and start playing, and with its simultaneous action selection mechanic, you'll need to stay on your toes to outmaneuver your opponent. As you play, you'll be collecting resources like Honor, Gold, Food, and Land, all while using betting and bluffing to keep your opponent guessing. With secret unit deployment and set collection also in the mix, there are plenty of ways to outsmart your opponent and get ahead. The game is designed for two players, but if you've got multiple decks, you can even play with three or four players, adding a whole new level of complexity to the game. Designed by Hayato Kisaragi and first published in 2009, Greedy Kingdoms is a classic card game that's all about strategy, skill, and a little bit of luck. Will you be the first to build two Royal Palaces and claim victory, or will your opponent outmaneuver you and take the win? There's only one way to find out.
