The King is Dead. The kingdom is divided. Three factions – the Scots, the Welsh, and the English – vie for power while foreign invaders prepare to exploit the chaos. Players must manage their limited resources to influence this power struggle, all while ensuring that the faction that rises to power benefits them most among all the pretenders to the throne.

The King is Dead: Second Edition revitalizes the accessible yet deep gameplay with updated graphic design, stunning new art, and an all-new asymmetrical game mode for advanced play.
