King of Tokyo

Description

--- **King of Tokyo** is a dice-based combat game where mutant monsters, robots, and aliens vie to dominate Tokyo through strategic rolls, attacks, and power-ups. Key mechanics include: - *Dice rolling* Players roll six dice up to three times per turn, selecting symbols for 1-3 Victory Points, Energy, Heal, or Attack. - *Tokyo control* Occupying Tokyo grants extra Victory Points but prevents healing and exposes the player to all attacks. - *Energy cards* Energy purchases special cards with permanent or temporary effects like extra dice, armor, or weapons. - *Combat and survival* Attacks damage opponents; win by reaching 20 Victory Points or being the last monster standing. King of Tokyo is a competitive dice-rolling board game where players embody mutant monsters, gigantic robots, or strange aliens battling to claim Tokyo. Each turn involves rolling six dice showing Victory Point (1, 2, or 3), Energy, Heal, or Attack symbols, with up to three rerolls to optimize results for scoring points, buying cards, restoring health, or damaging rivals. Controlling Tokyo yields bonus Victory Points but disables healing and pits the occupant against collective assaults. Energy acquires powerful cards offering effects like additional dice, body armor, or nova death rays. Victory is achieved by accumulating 20 Victory Points through destruction or outlasting all opponents as the sole survivor; it is the inaugural game in the King of Tokyo series. ---
