King of Tokyo: Origins is a standalone game in the King of Tokyo series, designed as a perfect introduction for new players. This smaller and more affordable version includes four brand-new monsters, a mix of new and classic power cards, energy cubes, and green dice with yellow symbols.

The game follows the same rules as the original: win by accumulating 20 points or by being the last monster standing!

On your turn, you roll six dice with symbols for points (1, 2, or 3), energy, healing, and attack. Over three rolls, you choose which dice to keep or re-roll to maximize your strategy—collect points, gain energy, heal, or attack opponents.

Standalone game: Does not require the base game
New content: Four new monsters and new power cards
Compact design: Perfect for beginners and affordable
