For the King (and Me)

Players compete to become the most valuable minister in a court where the young monarch is inept. Each round alternates a drafting phase, where the active player draws cards one at a time, keeps one, places one into a future auction pile, and lays the rest face-up for others to draft; taking a card ends that turn’s drafting for the taker. After several drafting turns, cards in the auction pile are bid on one by one. Cards score as colored point sets, as gold, or as modifiers that increase or decrease the value of specific colors. Players reveal hands and total points after all auctions to determine who best manipulated values and collections.
