The Crooked Crown

The Crooked Crown

2024·Ken Boyter, Kedric Winks

3 - 6 players
15 - 25 min
Medium weight: Teach it in one sitting

From BoardGameGeek

Steal the crown, win the game! The Goblin King is dead and the Crooked Crown is up for grabs! As custom dictates in the ramshackle goblin city of Snark, any goblin treacherous enough to seize the crown for themselves will be declared the new Goblin Ruler. But the Crooked Crown has disappeared! Suspicions are at boiling point and every goblin wants to find and steal the precious object. Power, glory and wealth await the 'rightous' Goblin Ruler! Players maintain a hand of cards for 8 rounds of play. One of them is hiding the Crooked Crown within their hand. Players can spy on each others' hands, boost their own hand, weaken other players' and steal from each other. Whoever holds the Crooked Crown at end of the final round wins the games! -description from the designers
