King Maker is a board game.
A simple game of strategic decisions and negotiation. Rules: 1. Every player starts with three tokens. (Coins, Chips, beans, etc.) 2. Randomly choose a player to go first. Play goes clockwise. 3. On the active players turn, s/he must remove exactly one token from the game. S/he may remove one of his or her own tokens or any other player's token. Tokens removed from the game cannot be recovered. A player cannot pass. 4. The last player with a token in front of them wins. Notes: 1. Players with no tokens are still in the game. They continue to play as normal. 2. Players may form coalitions and make deals, however all deals must be made in the open and at the table. Secret coalitions and pre-arranged deals are not allowed. 3. Promises are non-binding. Note: This is NOT Kingmaker from Avalon Hill
