The King Is Dead

EvEvanstar10,0

pseudo stock market game, where there are three colored cubes on the board. Each turn, whichever faction has the most cubes gets a win for that region. At the end of the game a player wins if he has the most cubes matching the color that won the most. The game lasts 8 rounds, and all players can do on their turn is spend one of their 8 once-per-game cards to carry out the card's effect and then remove a cube from the board adding it to their stock, or pass. What this means is, since each player gets the same set of cards, and since your taking a cube weakens the faction you then want to have succeed, this game quickly devolves into an unpredictable mess. Since you will only ever have 8 cubes, getting a cube in the wrong color is pretty much the end of you. Really no flexibility, and tension of who spends their cards first is more frustrating than fun. ☆ Art, Iconography and components functional ☆ Clever or interesting mechanisms ★ Reasonably low downtime between turns with mildly AP players ☆ Multiple plays stay interesting ☆ Low or mitigatable luck elements ☆☆☆☆☆ Raw enjoyment
