Pevans treads on Elrond's toes... Review of board game King of the Elves by Pevans ...by trying to become "King of the Elves". Anyone who has played will recognise this new Alan Moon game as a card game version of his Spiel des Jahres winner. It is also published by Amigo. The 'story' of the game is the same: the players are Elfen princes who must prove their worthiness for the throne by visiting as many Elfen villages as possible. In this case success is measured in terms of the gold they receive from each village - less expenses, natch. The other familiar element is the exotic transport available: giant pigs, elfcycles, troll-wagons, dragons and more. Each of these conveys a player across different terrain with varying efficiency - requiring the play of one or two cards. The type of terrain is denoted by the village card: forest, mountains, desert and so forth. Each village also has a value, which is higher the more difficult it is to reach the village (thus the sea villages are worth 7, while the plains villages score but 2). This value is the amount of gold a player collects by visiting the village.
