In Majesty, 2 to 4 players each manage their kingdom represented by a set of 8 cards, each with its symbol and color (and special power). During the game, players choose their subjects from a market of 6 cards, renewed each turn, in a determined order. The first one costs you nothing, but if you want to get the third one in line, you have to pay 1 meeple for each subject you do not hire. Obviously, not all subjects are equal. If peasants are numerous, princesses are much rarer.
The character you choose, whether he is a Peasant, Brewer, Witch, Guard, Knight, Innkeeper or Princess, goes to "his" building, thus triggering his effect to obtain victory points, meeples that will allow you later to go and get a card you are particularly interested in in the queue and possibly trigger some fights between your knights and the opposing guards, just to send some people to the Dispensary... All these buildings give you advantages but some of them also give advantages to the other players. Calculate well!
At the end of the 12 rounds, the game ends. Each choice is all the more crucial because in addition to the points scored during the game, the end of the game will be decisive on several points: Each category of building earns points at the end of the game to the one who has the majority of subjects in each building. You score points for the number of occupied buildings... squared! 49 points for a complete line, that hurts... but at the same time, the buildings, you will not have optimized them either... The characters still in the infirmary cost you precious points!
Finally, the buildings are double-sided - one side A and one side B - and if it is advised to play with the A cards during the first games, you can switch to the B set as soon as you have a little experience in the game - or even to the random set afterwards... It's time to wear the crown!
