Monkey Palace
Players must strategically work together to construct the Monkey Palace while competing for the highest brick income and points, all under the watchful gaze of the Monkey. The palace gradually takes form, resulting in an impressive construction using LEGO elements that players can proudly display at home. The iconic LEGO System in Play means that each time the board game is played, the building experience and final construction are totally unique and different.
Birgitte Bülow, industry veteran and leading the LEGO board game creation team at Asmodee, said: "We're thrilled to take all LEGO and board game fans on this gaming journey, combining the LEGO Group's timeless creativity with our passion and expertise in board games. Utilizing the endless possibilities of LEGO bricks was pivotal in designing this game. We believe Monkey Palace offers an extraordinary gameplay experience, blending competition and collaboration for board game enthusiasts worldwide."
Jaume Fabregat, Board Games Lead, LEGO Publishing, said, "At the LEGO Group, we're committed to inspiring the builders of tomorrow, which is why we're so delighted to reveal Monkey Palace in collaboration with Asmodee. The game challenges kids and adults alike to use LEGO elements to build, unbuild and rebuild their palaces, creating a fun play experience where no two games are the same. This latest collaboration allows us to bring even more creative and innovative ways to play."
