Reference values — King of Tokyo
| Starting health | 10 |
|---|---|
| Maximum health | 10 (12 with the card that raises the cap) |
| Victory points to win | 20 |
| Players | 2 to 6 |
| Dice per turn | 6, with up to 3 rolls |
Two counts at once
King of Tokyo has two win conditions and therefore two counts that matter: reaching 20 victory points, or being the last monster standing. A player can sit at 2 health and still win on the next point.
Health starts at 10 and is capped: healing above 10 does not stack, except with the card that raises the limit. That cap is easy to forget and distorts the count when healing comes in sequence.
A monster in Tokyo cannot heal with heart dice. That is the rule that most often forces a retroactive correction at the table, and the reason to keep each monster's state visible.
