The players are left to fight for the very dominance of the realm he ruled, by way of selecting which of the six great houses they want to represent.

The game begins with the death of the King Robert Baratheon. With the Game of Thrones board game, the object is for one of the 3-6 players to take command of the Great Houses of Westeros, similarly as those characters of the series itself are attempting to achieve. That is looking to be the case with Game of Thrones, as it has succeeded where many haven’t in spawning multiple board games. But to actually inspire several can only mean the series will go down in history. How totally cool is that? Game of Thrones: The Board Gameįor a television series to be so great, inspiring its own board game is one feat. You can also forget the bland ol houses or hotels to put on the properties you obtain-instead, you will be setting up holdfasts or castles.įinally, the best part of all is the iron throne card holder, which is a musical stand that actually plays the series theme song. Other items in the game also follow the same theme and include a gameboard that features scenes from the series, as well as gold dragon or even silver stag coins. The usual tokens, such as the shoe and the car, are replaced by symbols that fall into a theme with the series the game is based on-that of the sigils of the six great Houses. As they do, they will be buying, selling, and sometimes even trading properties all over the Seven Kingdoms. Instead of traveling the board touching on such places as Park Avenue and Boardwalk, players will alternatively travel the land of Westeros. Mix in a little fantasy and how can you go wrong-right? As many fans of Monopoly already know, the game is played with a fight mentality, negotiating property, paying owner fees, and of course trying to take down your opponents. One of those versions is Monopoly: Game of Thrones. And, as a result, the original Monopoly has since taken a multitude of different themed versions. Monopoly has been around for what many agree feels like the beginning of time.
