About the game

What you do in a play session

Lost Legends is a card game that blends Eurogame strategy with an action-packed fantasy theme. Each player takes on the role of a unique hero with specific abilities, aiming to build the ultimate arsenal to defeat epic monsters. The game features three challenge levels where you collect gear through an open drafting system—pick the card that fits your strategy and pass the rest to the next player. But beware: if you dodge a monster, it lands on your neighbor’s lap... and you’ll draw an even tougher one! At the end of each round, it’s time to pit your gear against the monster in front of you. The winner is whoever racks up the most Legend Points, earned by slaying monsters or completing specific sets. Get ready for intense battles and strategic decisions!

3 to 5 adventurers. Fewer loses the draft fun, more might drag the game.

Around 70 minutes, but it depends on players’ decisions.
