K'uh Nah is a board game released in 2019 for 2–6 players and ages 14 and up. It was designed by Adam E. Daulton and its main mechanics are Push Your Luck.
K’uh Nah (Mayan for "divine house") is a quick, press-your-luck style game in which players attempt to build the most perfectly shaped pyramid by avoiding the blocks they do not want and obtaining the ones they do want! Be careful because you must always place a lighter block on top of a heavier block, unless you are able to match the icons. The player who builds the best designed pyramid that will last the ages wins the game! Each card has two icons and a number. These are available to get and put in your pyramid. If you do not like any of the cards available, then you must put a jade token on one of the cards; if you do not have any jade tokens, then you must take a card. At the end of the game, you score the value of your cards not supporting other cards minus the jade tokens you have left. The player with the fewest points wins. —description from the publisher
K'uh Nah supports 2–6 players according to the catalogue. This range comes from the publisher’s listed player count, so the game can be set up for any group size within it. Some setups, rules and scoring details may still vary by player count, so check your edition’s rulebook for the exact configuration.
The catalogue lists K'uh Nah for ages 14 and up. This is the publisher’s recommendation and reflects reading demands, rule complexity and small components rather than theme alone. Younger players can often join with help from an adult, so check the age guidance on your edition and consider your group’s experience with board games.
K'uh Nah has a complexity rating of 1.0 out of 5 from BoardGameGeek players, which makes it a light game. The rating reflects how much rules knowledge, planning and decision-making a typical game demands. Expect a longer first teach for heavier games, and use a preparation guide before game night.
