About the game
Get ready for an epic new adventure in the Clank! universe with the highly anticipated sequel, Clank! Legacy 2: Acquisitions Incorporated – Darkest Magic. This title plunges players into a rich, twist-filled narrative campaign, blending cooperative and competitive elements as they explore the vibrant world of Penny Arcade's Acquisitions Incorporated. If you enjoyed the first Clank! Legacy, you can expect even more depth and surprises that evolve with each session.

In Clank! Legacy 2, with every game, the board and rules transform, creating a unique and personalized experience for your group. You and your friends will be part of a constantly changing story, where your choices have lasting consequences. The 'Push Your Luck' mechanic is still present, challenging you to decide how deep you want to go in search of treasures, always with the risk of attracting unwanted attention from dangerous creatures and accumulating 'Clank!'.

With deck, bag, and pool building, you'll optimize your actions and try to be the most efficient (and lucky!) thief at the table. The game is a clever mix of strategy, resource management, and a touch of chaos, perfect for those who enjoy campaigns with narratives that unfold over multiple sessions. It's a treat for anyone seeking an immersive experience with high replayability, even after the main campaign concludes. After all, who doesn't love leaving their mark on a fantasy world?
