Vive le Roi!*
* Long live the king! This is a bluffing and deduction game for 3-6 players aged 8 and up. The weary monarch Vladimir Miritiro is eyeing his subjects to choose a successor, and players assist by advising their favorites in the quest for the throne. With the king's retirement announcement, all subjects from cobblers to duchesses gather, but clever maneuvering and selective positioning are needed to reach the crown.
