Koukyuu Gekokujouki (後宮下克上記) (こうきゅうげこくじょうき) társasjáték

Angol leírás

User summary
This Japanese game has a Chinese title 後宮下克上記 and a subtitle ～利用せよ、出し抜け、結果得るのは、敵意、そして、権勢なり～.

In Japanese, the main title would be こうきゅうげこくじょうき (Kōkyū gekokujō-ki) (Koukyuu Gekokujouki). 'Ki' means Chronicles and Gekokujou means a junior overthrowing a senior (as in a servant overcoming its master, or a warlord being usurped from within its clan). The publisher offers an English title 'Mistress Dominating Royal' but a more literal translation would be 'The Inner Palace Insurrection Chronicles'.

The subtitle ～利用せよ、出し抜け、結果得るのは、敵意、そして、権勢なり～ translates as ~ Manipulate, outmanoeuvre, and reap what you sow, all in the name of enmity and influence ~.

Koukyuu Gekokujouki is a set collection game that involves penalties, designed for players who are looking for a sense of satisfaction from their game play. Combine cards for reproduction on a regressive scale.

Setting and Goal of the Game

Enter the inner palace, seek the king’s favour and gain influence — the battle between consorts is not an uncommon setting. The kingdom is overrun by a rabble of consorts at the present... but from this rabble there are those who scheme to manipulate others in possession of power, outmanoeuvre their rivals, and expand their control over the Inner Palace.

Players become consorts of the Imperial Court, vying for influence over the Inner Palace. This influence is represented by points, therefore the player with the greatest amount of points at the game is the victor. But take heed, as you outwit and steal influence from other consorts, they will retaliate with distrust and hostility to hinder your pursuit of power.

ゲームの設定と目的
　後宮に於いて、王の寵愛と権勢を求め、妃達が相争うのは珍しい光景ではありません。そう、とある王国でも、現時点では有象無象でしかない妾妃達が、有力な妃達を利用し、出し抜き、自らの後宮での権勢を高めようと画策しているのです。

　プレイヤーは、妾妃となって、後宮での権勢を得ることが目的となります。権勢は点数で表現されますので、ゲーム終了時に１番点数の高かったプレイヤーの勝利となります。なお、出し抜いて権勢を奪った妃達からは警戒心や敵意を持たれ、行動し辛くなるので気を付けましょう。
