King of Monster Island

This is the third or fourth version of this game, and the first cooperative version.eaning all players work togather in order to win. It is easy to pick up and learn, and great for smaller clubs.

Good family game

Solid entry in the “King of” series. Being co-op is better for kids. Only real complaint is that the low level boss monster is quite easy.

Very Impressed

We love to play both King of Tokyo and King of New York and thought a co-op version would make for a fun twist... we were not wrong. This is the most complex of the three designs, which rise in complexity as you go through the series, but not so complex that you can't play it with the family. My 7 year old can run the entire game on his own and if you just follow the step by step instructions on the back of the ally cards you'll be fine. It's one of the few recent co-op games that doesn't appear to have anything in common with Pandemic. There is no co-op game quite like and the dice really add to the emergent story telling aspect of the game. They don't add randomness you can't account for but they definitely keep you on your feet. This is a clever design that offers you meaningful choices and gives you ways to work together and play together that I've never seen in any other co-op game. Highly recommended.
