King Sivolc has a plan to leave the darkness behind forever!

The King’s Abbey is a strategic dice placement game that transports players to a time when great abbeys were illustrious parts of the Middle Ages. Players lead orders of monks commissioned by King Sivolc to build the greatest abbey to counter the growing darkness that threatens the land.

Roll and place your monks to recruit peasants and train clergy in your own abbey. Build your abbey by gathering wood, grain, stone, and sand. Launch crusades with the crusade cards and earn prestige. Every roll provides flexibility, challenge, and a unique path to success! 

The game also has a scalable length and difficulty. Get a taste of victory with the base game, and go on gruelling crusades when experienced. Also included are the first two expansions, Saints and Relics, to provide new challenges!

Withstand the darkness, and demonstrate to King Sivolc that your abbey has the prestige to be THE KING’S ABBEY!

Sofia ★★★★★

The dice placement mechanic keeps every turn tense without feeling punishing, and our group of five stayed hooked for the full three hours. Setup takes a bit, but once the abbey tiles are laid out the strategy really opens up.

Natalie ★★★★★

Played this with four friends and the dice placement kept everyone engaged the whole three hours without anyone checking their phone. The solo mode works surprisingly well too, though the real magic is how differently each game plays depending on what the abbot does. Easily the most strategic board

Daniel K. ★★★★★

Solo play is fantastic — the 90-180 minute commitment flies by because the dice placement decisions are so tense. That dark theme with King Sivolc’s plan actually gives the strategy some stakes I wasn’t expecting.
