What is Meerkat Kingdoms

Welcome to Meerkat Kingdoms, a board game set in the diverse and treacherous Kalahari desert. In this untamed wilderness that spans three different countries and endures extreme temperatures, survival is a fierce challenge for its inhabitants. Among them, Meerkats embody resilience as they bravely navigate a world filled with perils, including predators like eagles, snakes, and hyenas. But the dangers don't end there – rival Meerkat families also vie for dominance.

In Meerkat Kingdoms, you step into the role of a Meerkat queen, tasked with securing your family's supremacy in this harsh environment. It's time to prove the strength of your matriarchy. Meerkat Kingdoms is an area control game for with a very light Meerkat placement element. By strategically pairing your dice rolls, you must decide which crucial locations to deploy your Meerkat meeples to. Carefully consider which locations to fight over because if both players have an equal number of Meerkats there, neither will gain control.

The gameplay continues until players exhaust their supply of Meerkat meeples. However, once only one player remains with Meerkat meeples, the game reaches its final round, do your best to position your Meerkats wisely and faster than your opponents!

To secure victory, players must employ their best strategies to claim the most valuable locations and complete secret objective cards. It is through these endeavors that one can attain the most points and emerge triumphant as the ultimate Meerkat family in the Kalahari.
