King of Tokyo
This is a great game to try with people who aren’t board gamers. Wife and I played with my Parents, Brother and Sister in law at a recent family gathering. My Dad has never enjoyed board games and was extremely reluctant to play at first, but as soon as we finished our first game, he wanted to start another game! Amazing!
This game is easy to teach, and the cards lend a lot to the re-playability of this game. You never know what crazy card will come up that completely changes your strategy.
The only complaint that I have is that some strategies are a lot stronger than others. Specifically, the ability to roll 3 numbers to get that number of VP. My sister in law relies on this strategy every time, never trying to enter Tokyo if she can avoid it, and I think has been unbeaten in every game that we’ve played with her.
But you know, I just love the theme and the gameplay so much that I don’t mind losing!
