Nanty Narking is a Victorian board game of wit and podsnappery by British game designer Martin Wallace, based on his acclaimed previous design “Discworld: Ankh-Morpork.” Immersed deeply in the world of Dickens's and Doyle's literature, all game locations, events, and characters are now tied to real and fictional characters and places in Victorian London.
The action takes place on the map of London, with players placing their followers and buildings on the board through card play. Each of the 132 cards is unique, and feature famous literary and historical characters. The rules are relatively simple: Play a card and do what it says. Most cards have more than one action on them, and you can choose to do some or all of these actions. Some cards also allow you to play a second card, so you can chain actions. At the beginning of the game, each player draws a secret personality with specific victory conditions, which means you can never be sure what the other players need to do in order to win.
In Nanty Narking, you will find simple game rules, deep and immersive gameplay, a strong theme, and beautiful components.
