King of 12*
Become the new ruler of the Kingdom of the 12 using your magical imperial apple. To harness its power, you need the help of various characters throughout the kingdom.
Each player uses the same set of seven character cards, selecting one each round and playing it face down. If players choose the same card, those are nullified; otherwise, the effects are resolved on each player's d12. The player with the highest score after comparing results wins the round, earning points, while ties are resolved through elimination. The game continues until a player sets aside a second card, declaring them the winner. It offers engaging interactions with bluffing, mind-reading, and strategy, and is easy to learn and fun to play. Up to four games can be combined to accommodate up to 16 players.
