Brutal Kingdom

Brutal Kingdom by Michael Rieneck and Thames & Kosmos is a card game for 3 to 4 players ages 12 to adult, and plays in about 30 minutes. At the beginning of a round, each player has four character cards in hand. On your turn, you play a card in front of you and follow its instructions. With some cards, you can carry out actions on your opponent and bring an end to the round's influence, but only if you don't fall victim to your opponent in the process.
