they hould first fix the existing bugs, the current KOT already has so many bugs. what's the point introducing new add on when the base game becomes useless. ita like running towards the shiny things without fixing your core base

There are two "games" actually achieved throught he partnership between IELLO(King of Tokyo) and Nerdlab Games(Mindbug).

"King of Tokyo: Mindbug" is an expansion to King of Tokyo:
- 3 additional monster characters, with Power Up cards
- The Mindbug token mechanic, allowing you to Mindbug an opponents dice roll
- Additional set of power cards of the CONSUMABLE type

"Mindbug: King of Tokyo" is a Mindbug game("a whole new game"), featuring King of Tokyo Monsters, and utilizes the dice and power card mechanic of KoT. It's compatible with earlier Mindbug sets.
It's playable on the Mindbug Online platform(mobile phone or Steam) and works great.

It doesn't seem buggy to me? Aside from having to leave Tokyo when another player has already won via points, I haven't noticed anything at all. What is it you're experiencing? (I saw your post, I'm just wondering about the actual bugs)

Check the rule book, when the player reaches 20 VP, they must also survive until the end of the turn. It's not instant win, although it usually is.
If they have only 1 HP left, and they have a poison spit token on them, they die and don't win. If the player in Tokyo leaves while holding Burrowing, the player with 1 HP also dies.

All phases are just played out as normal till end of the turn.

I never considered that, thanks for pointing it out!
