King & Assassins Deluxe Edition (EN)

The king has finally descended among his people, safe behind a shield wall of his so called ‘knights' and sure of his immense authority. Walking among the crowd, he pays no heed to the shouts of rising anger, blindly believing that his subjects are too scared to act against his rule. Yet, there are shadowy forces ready to topple the throne and secret agents hidden among the throng who are more than willing to strike at the most opportune moment. The fate of the kingdom is soon to be decided...
During the game, players control one of the two rival groups: the merciless king with his knightly lackeys and the assassins manipulating the crowd to create an opportunity for an attack. Each side has a number of figures at its disposal, moving around the board in order to position them to further its agenda - either bring the king through a crowded square inside the castle or assassinate him before this happens.
King & Assassins: Deluxe Edition is not a new game, but a refreshed and streamlined edition of a very successful title from 2013. For the fifth anniversary we have prepared the new version of the game, which features: a bigger box, larger, double-sided board with new, stunning artwork of a medieval city and most importantly - a set of 23 masterfully sculpted miniatures in 15 varieties! All this results in a truly immersive, 2-player gaming experience that will bring you hours of enjoyable gameplay.
