Overview:
A Few Good Knights is a press your luck / strategic dice rolling game for 2-4 players.
Players take on the role of medieval Knights on a quest to retrieve their king’s stolen gold. The King has offered the title of Baron and a large plot of land to the Knight who earns the most Renown!
A Few Good Knights is played over a series of 2-3 “Days”. Each Day consists of 3 rounds, referred to as Dawn, Dusk, and Night. Night rounds are more dangerous but offer increased rewards.
Turns are conducted in a clockwise order, where players receive a Planning then Adventure Phase.
The Planning Phase allows players to buy items, potions, and gem gamble cards in order to improve their ability to fight goblins and recover gold.
The Adventure Phase requires bold dice selection as each player must select 7 Adventure Dice to roll. Players retrieve gold and mana by rolling matching sets of gems and receive Damage and Wounds by rolling Goblins, Bombs, and Warlords. Strategic use of items and potions is vital to managing the benefits and risks of the dice.
Renown is earned by collecting Gold and can also be earned by ending the game with Mana and/or a complete Item Set equipped.
Players lose Renown by taking too much Damage in the form of Wounds. Any player that ends a turn with 5 Wounds is eliminated from the game.
The player with the best mitigation strategies and most Renown will emerge victorious!
A Few Good Knights is easy to learn and offers exciting, strategic gameplay.
