Victory Point Games has announced the next title in their new Me & the Kids line to be titled King’s Critters, designed by Kai Jensen – that’s “Mrs. Chad Jensen” for all you GMT fans out there.
From VPG:
Each player controls a Knight trying to capture and return various point-valued critters to the King’s zoo after a Dragon had stolen them!
King’s Critters is a clever little race game to achieve the highest score. There is some strategy in choosing paths along which to move, positioning your knight for the best possibilities to catch a critter on the next turn, and deciding which colored areas to head toward in the hopes of either drawing a card or moving the Dragon, and all presented with whimsical Jessica Schultz illustrations. So, while the young ones are learning some basic strategy gameplay elements, everyone including the adults joining in will have a great time.
We’ll have more news about King’s Critters as it becomes available.
