Louis XIV

Use influence and intrigue to carry out your agenda in the court of Louis XIV

This board game is set in the French court of Louis XIV. Players take on the roles of members of the Court, and have about 100 minutes in which to carry out their missions and goals at Versailles.

By using cards and influence stones, they influence high-ranking Court attendants, such as the King’s Mother or one of the countless Royal mistresses.

Naturally, the Sun King himself has a special role here too. High levels of tension are guaranteed as the final outcome is in doubt right up to the end.

  • 90 cards
  • 64 influence markers
  • 12 game boards
  • 60 coats-of-arms
  • 34 mission chips
