In Royals, players take on the roles of the great noble houses of the 17th century, fighting for supremacy in Europe at that time. With the help of the right country cards, they occupy influential positions and obtain bonuses for this in the form of victory points. The higher the rank of the title associated with the position, the more country cards required. Already-occupied positions can be contested by playing intrigue cards.
The game proceeds over three periods, with a scoring taking place after each of them. During scoring, the players with the greatest influence in each of the four countries score victory points. After the third period scoring, the game ends with the scoring of the individual titles. The player with the most victory points wins.
This is a great game for 2-5 players, and a wonderful gateway game for non-gamers. The game itself is pretty easy to learn but has a surprising strategic depth. The theme is a bit dry but aside from that I have littel bad to say about this game. Game length comes in around an hour at all player counts, and all counts are excellent as well.
Think ticket to ride but as an area control game and you're getting there. Recommended as an easy and fun strategy game!
