Game End and Scoring

Victory, defeat, exact kills, and the solo medal in Regicide.

Shared victory

Defeat all 12 royals in the castle: four Jacks, four Queens, then four Kings. A win has no point total; surviving the complete sequence is the objective.

Defeat

The team loses immediately if a player cannot discard enough value to cover the current royal’s attack, or cannot play a card or yield legally.

Returning a defeated royal

If the attack total exactly matches the royal’s remaining health, put that royal face down under the Tavern. If the attack exceeds the remaining health, put it in the discard pile. In either case, discard all cards used against the royal. Exact kills therefore return a card to the draw pile, but do not grant a card draw themselves.

Solo medal

In solo play, each of the two Jesters is a one-use hand reset. Finish with both unused for gold, one unused for silver, or none unused for bronze. Solo uses the same 12-enemy objective and an 8-card hand limit.
