Be the first lord or lady to fulfill three whims of King Rolphius the Mad and win the throne!

Gather Your Armies! Claim Your Territory! Screw Your Friends! Win the Throne!

Welcome, lords and ladies, to our turbulent kingdom. Our beloved (albeit unstable) King Rolphius the Mad is dying! Having no rightful heir, the king is likely to bestow the crown upon the lord or lady who fulfills his fanciful whims.

Perhaps he’ll show favor upon the courtier who owns the most land...

Or perhaps shrewd and cunning intrigues will catch his eye...

Or perhaps he will be pleased by a bold and powerful warlord...

Regardless, the lord or lady who wishes to claim the throne must be ready for anything!

Fast, Furious Fun

Whims: A Game of Royal Butt-Kissing features easy-to-learn, fast-paced gameplay, and due to the random nature of King Rolphuis’s whims, no two games are the same.

At any given time, players vie to fulfill the requirements of one the king’s whims (the game’s current objective). The king’s whims are fanciful and varied and require players to accomplish several types of tasks:

Exploring the kingdom to conquer lands and seize resources

Raiding and capturing the lands of opponents while guarding against such attacks

Amassing armies and supporters

Frustrating and thwarting the plans of opponents

Though gameplay is simple, the players are faced with a wealth of interesting choices each turn, and the sparse resources of a turbulent kingdom force the players to interact with each other at every turn.

The Choice is Yours

Do you wish to rush headlong into furious competition with your opponents to fulfill the current objective? Or would it be wiser to bolster your holdings and defenses in preparation for future objectives? Or do you just want to be a total jerkbag and do everthing you can to make your opponents rage-cry?

In Whims: A Game of Royal Butt-Kissing, the choice is yours! Grab your copy today and win the throne! (Or make your friends dissolve into a simmering puddle of frustration juice. Because, you know, winning isn’t everything.)
