## Description
In Zimby Mojo, you step into the role of a powerful shaman leading a tribe of fierce, conniving cannibals known as Zimbies. Your ultimate goal? To become the next Cannibal King! This involves guiding your fanatically loyal (yet unruly) Zimbies to infiltrate the current king's stronghold, defeat him, snatch his Crown, and safely transport it back to your tribal board. The game features a fascinating shift in dynamics: the first phase is entirely cooperative, requiring all players to band together to gain access to the king's sanctuary. However, once the king is defeated, the game transforms! It becomes a free-for-all, with the first tribe to deliver the Crown to their board claiming the throne and winning. Trust is a scarce commodity in this world of bizarre creatures and cannibalistic ambition. You'll wield 'Mojo,' a mystical energy, to summon your Zimbies, move them across the grid-based board, and cast powerful spells using scrolls. Be warned: expending Mojo weakens your Zimbies or might even require cannibalizing them for a surge of power. Combat is resolved with dice rolls, and simultaneous action selection adds a layer of unpredictability. A challenging solo mode is also available to hone your strategies before facing off against other players. Prepare for cannibalistic chaos where cooperation and betrayal go hand in hand!

Mojo is the mystical energy you use to activate your Zimbies, move them, and cast magical scrolls. You generate Mojo each turn, but using it can weaken or even consume your Zimbies, so careful management is key!
