Kingdoms

Description

Welcome to Kingdoms, a game where you'll be building your own evil empire, but be warned, other demon lords are trying to do the same, and they won't hesitate to sabotage your plans. This game is all about social interaction, making it perfect for 4 players, although 2 players can still have a blast. With simple rules that can be explained quickly, you'll be diving into the world of Kingdoms in no time, where you'll need to navigate the delicate balance between building up your strength and causing trouble for your opponents. Each player starts with a solid foundation, 1000 gold, 1000 resources, and a blueprint of their kingdom, which outlines the buildings they need to construct to emerge victorious. To bring your kingdom to life, you'll need to gather money, resources, and minions, who are essential but also unpredictable and demanding. They'll construct buildings for you, but they'll also complain and moan, requiring you to build them dens of iniquity and houses of ill repute to keep them satisfied. But don't worry, you can always smite a few to keep them in line. As you navigate the game, you'll be faced with choices between building up your kingdom or ruining someone else's, all while keeping an eye out for secret alliances and nasty surprises, like demonic health inspectors, drunken aunts, and unpleasant diseases. With a mix of dice rolling, card drafting, and trading, Kingdoms offers a unique blend of strategy and humor. You'll need to mess with your opponents' plans, tempt their minions to your kingdom, or infect them with a plague to get ahead. The game is full of unexpected twists and turns, making it a thrilling experience for players. Whether you're a fan of city building, fantasy, or just love a good laugh, Kingdoms has something for everyone. So gather your friends, get ready to build your evil empire, and may the most devious demon lord win. With a playtime of around 60 minutes, you can dive into the world of Kingdoms and experience the thrill of building and sabotaging in a relatively short amount of time, making it a great addition to any game night.
