Description

Monkey Duel is a fun and strategic board game designed by Alex Weldon, released in 2020. In this easy-to-learn game, players take turns rolling dice to bring new monkeys onto the board, move their existing ones, or throw coconuts at their opponent's monkeys. The goal is simple: accumulate points by leaping your monkeys from bamboo stalk to bamboo stalk and getting them to the other side of the board, or by knocking your opponent's monkeys off the board. As a game of positioning and timing, Monkey Duel requires players to think carefully about their moves. Monkeys higher up the bamboo stalks have an advantage, but every move means giving up some altitude. Players must decide when to keep their monkeys together for safety and when to make a break for it, all while trying to outmaneuver their opponent. With its simple rules and exciting gameplay, Monkey Duel is a great choice for two players looking for a fun and challenging competition. By combining dice rolling with strategic thinking, this game offers a unique and engaging experience that will keep you coming back for more.
