It is a roleplaying game for 2-5 players that picks drama and fiction first, using everyday items like playing cards and chess pieces to create stories of compromise, responsibility, and power.Players take on the role of commoners elevated by ability or chance to the role of courtiers. You may be the Inkpot who governs law and words, the Champion who leads the nation's armies or defends the monarch's body, or the Fool who masks the truth with japes. Each of these playbooks gives you unique moves that let you spend and gain tokens that let you define the world, advance plans of action, and try to quell growing threats against the monarch, the nation, and the citizens.
