God Save the King thrusts players into the center of the conflict between warring kingdoms. The crown is threatened; the duty to take up arms falls to every living subject, whether knight, marshal, captain, footman, squire, or cup-bearer. Even the Queen herself may be called upon to give her life so that the King may be spared.

This is an abstract strategy game that can be played using a standard deck of 52 playing cards. However, the talented Inna Kozak has illustrated a custom deck of cards featuring thematically-rich characters, where every card is a unique "face card".

Simple to learn, but with layers of complexity,  players must rely on induction, deduction, and deception, in an attempt to seize the rival King(s) while protecting their own.
