Button Kingdoms

Button Kingdoms is a bribery based deck building game, with simultaneous actions where players take on the role of child commanders of their own fantasy stuffed animal armies.

The goal of the game is to build up your kingdom of fluffy fighters by collecting currency in the form of buttons, and to seize the thrones of other players… while staying true to your character's own secret motivations.

During the Button Bazaar phase, players place bribe offers in the hopes of adding fluffy fighters to their deck, and accept the bribes of their opponents to acquire those precious buttons which become victory points at the end of the game. After this market phase is resolved, players turn their newly acquired cards against their opponents in the goal of seizing another throne to add to their dominion.

Victory will rest on three separate pillars: total BUTTONS, THRONES in your possession, and how well your deck of cards measures up to your champion’s IDEALS. Even if you fall behind in the combat aspect of the game, with skillful deck building and solid deal-making, you could still net the win.
