Gambit Royale, first released under the name Ruse & Bruise, is now available with 5 new cards. The players try to use their royal household to manipulate the court and gain the most fame (victory points).
Each player has the same set of conspirators in this competition to score points by winning goal cards. The players can employ Alchemists, Fencing Masters, Kings, Queens and others for their raw power. They can also employ others such as Beggars, Wizards, Witches, Traitors, and even the 3 Musketeers for their power and special abilities to influence the outcome of the various goal card competitions.
Kings have the most power, but no special abilities! So, players should carefully choose when to employ their most powerful conspirators. The game is played over six rounds for several goal cards in each round. Each goal card has a certain value, but players can double their scores by winning goal cards in all 6 areas. Planning is crucial. The highest sum of goal cards wins.
