King's Kilt is a card game from Gordon Hamilton for two to four players for ages 10 and up. Play time is 20 minutes. Wield your influence over the clans to win power and prestige for your family in the struggle for the Scottish crown. Players start with 3 hidden Clan Members that represent their candidates to promote to the throne. Players vie to place their candidates within the hierarchy of clan members in their quest to ascend the throne. Treachery can also be used to eliminate opponents in their way. At the end of the game, if the player's candidates match the clan of the King, the Guardians or the Nobles, they will score victory points and will hopefully prove their right to the seat of power in Scotland!
