One player is the King, and must approve or reject requests from his subjects. Up to 5 players are the subjects, who try to convince the king to lend them aid. Each round, the subjects pick up a scroll telling them what their story is, and they form a line in front of the king to make their requests.
Depending on whether the king approves or denies a request, the resources of the kingdom (Gold, People, Morale, Health, Power, and Fortune) increase or decrease. The king has to keep all the resources balanced while progressing along one of the story paths provided.
It looks like it might take an hour or two for a proper game, but I haven't made it that far.
