Description Description
Ever felt like the Cultist needed some help taking care of those bullies who keep picking on him? Now he has it! Rat King adds a whole new dimension to monsters in Ascension! While up until now monsters have impacted the game only by providing a reward to the player who defeats them, the Rat King leads his hordes of Giant Rat minions to swarm all over the center row and wreak havoc on the best laid plans. In game terms, the Rat King cards are shuffled into the center deck, while the Giant Rats are placed on the side. When the Rat King shows up in the center row, cover every other card with a Giant Rat. Players need to defeat these rats – or the King himself – before being able to get to the other cards.

Ascension: Theme Pack – Rat King comes with two copies of the Rat King and ten Giant Rats, enough for the rodent infestation to strike twice in a single game!

I am a fan of deck building games. I have multiple games from the Ascension series, all of which I think are great games. I never mix cards from an expansion with the base game or other expansions, because each expansion adds a different mechanic to the rules. I also like throwing in the Rat King and Rat Queen packs. Storm of Souls is my favorite, followed by War of Shadows. The others are good, but I seem to favor these two when deciding which one to play.

Gives you two copies of a new monster that has a unique ability! I’m all about new unique monsters so I love adding this!

Actually won the game at a MegaMeetUp tournament in Tuscaloosa, AL. This game is great for my family since it works well no matter how many are playing. I am able to keep both a 9 and 18 year old at the table :-)

Nice little promo. Neat idea with the rats that cover the other cards, but if you have enough power to kill the king right away the award is too high.

A good mini-expansion for Ascension. Acts as a simple extra card you can throw in, but does something a little fancier than your average card with putting the rats on top on every other card that you have to remove.
