I think this game could really use a more detailed explanation of the rules - while playing we were confused by the intent of the rules several times (whether to do all of the actions listed, or to choose just one, and how the queen should be played). After we clarified what we thought the rules were supposed to be (choosing one action and playing queens as a reaction), the game worked well. It was fairly well balanced, although luck was a bigger component than I personally prefer. Kings also felt a little underwhelming, their power generally didn't feel useful enough to forgo getting points.
