    King Of The Castle is probably one of, if not my all-time favorite party games. It's easy to learn and play with so many friends. The story is fun and engaging while ever-changing and unique for each playthrough. It plays like a visual novel that meets with the political intrigue of a game like Secret Hitler. I believe the game is best played by having all the players read their character's lines out loud to each other and roleplay it. For the low price, I would put it as a must-have for any party game and a brainer if it goes on sale.

    Wearing the guise of an easy-to-play party game, King Of The Castle thrives when its true depth is revealed and you’re three pop-ups deep into a dilemma about trying to coexist with giant man-eating spiders. Easy to pick up but challenging to win, Tributary Games’ debut is a charming success that’s easy to recommend for an evening of multiplayer hijinks.

    King of the Castle is a decidedly particular game, and its exclusively multiplayer nature could unfortunately make it less famous than it actually deserves. There are still some things to polish and something to add but this could just be the dawn of a new genre of games to interact with through a live or to spend a few hours having fun with friends.

    It's a decent enough excuse for some very good times. [Issue#383, p.120]
