About the game
The tile-laying game Claim Kingdoms from Game Fame Factory is an updated version for two players and is set in the Claim universe. You rule over a small region in a deserted corner of the kingdom. It is time to change that and expand your influence. Work together with the brave knights, the friendly gnomes, the mighty dragons, and many other inhabitants of the land. With their aid, you will soon rule over the largest region of the kingdom! The game has an easy setup: Choose seven of the ten factions, take your figurines, your player aid and two cards in hand, prepare the draw deck, draw one card and place it face up in the playing area, draw the top three cards and place them face up next to the draw deck, and finally place one of your figurines on the scoreboard. Now you are ready! When it's your turn, you go through the following steps in order: Place a card in the playing area and place your figurine on it. Use the special power of the placed card (optional). Take a new card. The game ends when: After a complete a player hasn't got any more figurines in their supply. The draw deck and the display are empty, and all players have no cards in hand. After the game end is triggered, the endgame scoring is performed. Players score points for each faction (not each card) they control. A player controls a faction when he has more figurines of his color on cards of that faction than his opponent. For each faction you control, you receive the amount of points indicated on the left side of the card. The player with the most points wins. In case of a tie, the player with more figurines left in his supply wins. If this is a tie as well, both players share the victory. —description from publisher
