About the game
What you do in a play session
Legends Untold: Weeping Caves Novice Set is a cooperative dungeon-crawling adventure that blends RPG elements with accessible board game mechanics. In about an hour, you and up to 3 friends (or solo) explore dark caves, face challenges and uncover epic tales - all with quick setup and zero downtime. The twist? It's not just about slaying monsters: your party must work together to bypass devious traps, negotiate with unpredictable NPCs and overcome obstacles in multiple ways - each choice offering different rewards. Your hero is fully customizable with unique talents, gear and abilities that grow across the 8 included scenarios. The test system uses just 3 simple dice, but the real magic lies in cooperation: assisting allies in combat, keeping morale high and planning group strategies. Beware risky decisions - even talking to an NPC might backfire! The Kickstarter edition includes exclusive extra content, perfect for diving deep into this medieval fantasy world.
