Henchmania: Second Edition

Henchmania: Second Edition is a board game for 2–5 players. It plays in 45–60 minutes and is meant for ages 12 and up. Ludoya players call it best with 4. It is rated 7,5 out of 10 by 1 Ludoya reviewers.

Players take the role of rival medieval lords who command grotesque, devoted henchmen to expand influence across a quirky city. Over a sequence of four day phases, players deploy minions, contest districts, and use special actions to gain or sabotage prestige points. Victory comes from scoring the most prestige after four days or by reaching a target prestige threshold first. The game emphasizes area control, asymmetric abilities tied to each house, and tactical resource management as players sacrifice or risk henchmen to shift the balance of power.
