Live Stream on Third Floor Wars
I had a blast with the crew on Third Floor Wars yesterday playing my first
live stream of The King's Poisoner. Too much fun was had by all, and the kind and wonderful things they had to say about the game at the end meant a great deal. Thanks again Craig & fellow floorheads!

Wow, what a day! Thanks everyone for your interest, support and kind words, it's been exhilarating and extremely gratifying!
I know we've still got some way to go, but I'm buoyed by the progress we've made towards our goal and the responses to the campaign.
So much so, that I thought we'd try something fun—let's all play The King's Poisoner together...BY POLL!
That's right, you heard me. I know, I know, it's never been tried before, and probably with good reason, but let's give it a shot anyway!
Ok, Let's Play.
Whenever you start playing a game of The King's Poisoner, the first thing you have to do is choose a king.
See that poll down below, the choice is yours!
If you're having trouble deciding, please keep reading the quoted text.
But how do you know if you want to be king if you've never played the game before, I hear you ask?
I usually tell people that first of all, you can't make a mistake. All the roles are fun to play, and if you're not king this time, you should definitely give it a try the next.
That being said, though the king can still conspire with others, they have a little less freedom with card play in Acts I & III. However, they do have more influence over the setting and tone of the game by virtue of their role.
So if you like describing or imagining the world around you, or having more of a say over the kingdom in the story you're all creating, the role of the king will suit perfectly!
If you'd rather do more scheming and strategizing, or experience manipulating the cards on the table with your advantage, you're probably best to start as a member of the king's court.
I hope that all makes sense! If not, please feel free to start a discussion in the Community and ask a question.
