Power Monkeys

The catalogue lists Power Monkeys for ages 12 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.

Power Monkeys has a complexity rating of 1.5 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.

Power Monkeys belongs to these categories: Expansion for Base-game. Categories describe the theme, setting and style of a game rather than its rules.

The credited designers of Power Monkeys are: Chuck Wilhelm. These credits come from the published game data and name the people responsible for the game’s design, not its illustrators or publishers.

The catalogue lists Power Monkeys as an expansion for Ebola Monkey Hunt. Expansions add new content, rules or scenarios to the base game and usually cannot be played on their own, so you need Ebola Monkey Hunt to use it. Check that your edition of Ebola Monkey Hunt is compatible, as some expansions were revised between editions.
