Explore the bizarre world of power, fantasy, and political intrigue to discover the hilarious consequences of managing an unstable kingdom.

In this online party game, one player becomes the Monarch while others join as their Council of Nobles. The Monarch can host a game for 3-24 players to join through any device with a web browser on Steam.
