The King's Poisoner

King's Poisoner is a thrilling out-of-the-box tabletop roleplaying game of love, loyalty, ambition & murder. With no preparation and no game master, 3–8+ players can learn as they go, scheming unforgettable stories in 1-2 hours.

Press your luck blackjack-style card play infused with collaborative storytelling creates the drama, romance & suspense of court intrigue, that will keep everyone guessing right to the very end!

One of you is the king. Everyone else is a member of their royal court who's either going to assassinate them or rat out the conspirators and save them. Who will you trust? What will you dare? And when the last card is played—who will be king!

Featured at SXSW Sydney Games Festival, PAX Aus, OZ Comicon, GenCon (Online), GoPlayNW (Online), Conquest & Generation Games Festival to overwhelmingly positive reviews, V2S Games successfully crowdfunded the production of Standard & Deluxe edition boxed sets—arriving March 2025!
