Kings of the Mountain

What is Kings of the Mountain

Kings of the Mountain is a 1-5 player cooperative card game in which players fight through dragons and undead on the way to cleansing a legendary mountain of the evil that resides on it.

Players win if they can rid Kings' Mountain of monsters by defeating each one in order before the Heroes deck is depleted.

In the print and play version, cards numbered 2-10 represent heroes that players control. Each hero has two abilities that pass or fail based on a single skill check, based on the flipping the top card of the hero deck. Players recruit heroes each round, use their abilities to deal damage and defeat monsters, and try to clear Kings' Mountain of the threat before the heroes are depleted!

KotM is a "Dungeon Crawl in a Deck of Cards" that can be played as a print and play with a crib sheet and a deck of cards to represent the heroes, monsters, and bosses.
