What is 4 Kings

4 Kings is a card game for 2 to 7 players. It can be played with a standard deck of cards, or with the print & play cards (available in the links section).

The objective is to use the unique abilities of the cards you are dealt, (or the cards you choose, if using the Card Drafting variant) to capture other cards, while at the same time avoiding the loss of your own highest valued cards. If any player captures all 4 Kings, that player wins.

A player chosen at random will start out the game with a card of his choice. After this, each player attempts to use the abilities of their cards to capture opponents' cards in play while at the same time limiting the risk of losing their highest valued cards.

After playing a card, until the start of a player's next turn, his card is at risk of being captured. At the end of play, if no player has captured all 4 kings, the player holding the highest value of cards collected wins.
