While I don't agree that they are not comparable (King of New York basically is like a stand alone Expansion, the rules core is the same), I'd agree that King of New York has more thematic flavour. But my gaming group are quite the geek gamers (as I said, Terra Mystica and Imperial Assault are all-time favourites), and that is exactly the problem with King of New York for us: it's complexity level isn't rewarded, and there are so many other options if we want a meatier game.That beeing said, since King of Tokyo is played basically every time, we do play King of New York quite often to "give it another chance". I guess we will continue to do so, but with the decision from IELLO to not include New York Evolution Cards for the upcoming King of Tokyo: Power Up, I'll see it vanish from our gaming table for good. Which doesn't matter, because it will live on. The King of New York Monsters are just awesome, with hilarious names for the powers, my favourites beeing "New Theme Song", the whole Communist Theme of the Red-stared ape with redistribution powers, and "The short arm of the law" for that T-Rex Sheriff.
