Game played: King of New York ( IELLO ) BGG Id: 160499

The third group of three were on the smaller table and started out with King of New York. This is a refinement of King of Tokyo which adds some new elements to spice the game up. Firstly, the reward for staying in Manhattan (the equivalent of Tokyo in the original) ramps up each round you spend there. Also the other players can move between four other districts of New York and get to stomp on buildings for additional benefits. However, this triggers military forces in that district which can attack you back until you manage to stomp on them as well. The victory conditions are unchanged though: Either be the last monster alive or accumulate twenty victory points.

In Nicky, Andrew and Beth's game, they obviously managed to keep their health intact reasonably well for a while as they were racking up the VPs. However, Nicky eventually succumbed while she had 13 VPs, leaving Andrew and Beth in a race to 20 VPs. And Andrew took the win with 20 VPs and 6 health to Beth's 17Vps and 3 health. They all seemed to really enjoy it, each of them rating it an '8'.
