About the game

What you do in a play session

In Legend Raiders, you’re an adventurer on a quest for legendary treasures and mythical places. The goal? Collect as many ancient coins (victory points) as possible. Each round features four missions, each with a discovery and two random tools (like ropes, shovels, compasses, and maps). On your turn, you choose between grabbing a new discovery or performing discoveries with the tools you already have. Each treasure requires a specific combination of tools, and places give more points but are harder to explore. Use your favorite tool for extra points, or take advantage of the torch as a wildcard (but only if it’s lit!). Solving missions quickly can be advantageous, but it’s also strategic to accumulate discoveries for higher scores. The game ends when someone digs up six treasures. Who will be the best explorer?
