King and Assassins, based on a 2013 board game, hides more depth than expected.
A riot has broken out around the castle, and the king’s guards must get the king safely to the castle through the angry citizens—but assassins lurk among the crowd, taking advantage of the situation to strike the vulnerable monarch. This is the premise of Łukasz Woźniak’s 2013 board game, ported to a digital edition by developers PlaySoft and publisher Asmodee Digital. It’s a very asymmetrical game, almost abstract in its simplicity, and hides more depth than I expected for its price.
The assassins, meanwhile, control the twelve citizens placed across the board, choosing three of them as disguises for the actual killers. The citizens themselves can only move and block the King’s path, but the assassins can reveal themselves and strike to kill a guard or hit the king.
