About the game
What you do in a play session
This expansion breathes new life into the base game, injecting a generous dose of variety. You'll find new dragon species to collect and new caves to expand your sanctuary. However, the real shift lies in the strategic depth: the introduction of additional objective tiles and the arrival of Dragon Guilds, which create new layers of interaction and goals to pursue throughout the match.
Furthermore, the game's timing dynamics have been enhanced. A new round tracker has been implemented, and it's not just for counting turns. Now, when you decide to pass your turn for the round, you are presented with an income choice, forcing you to decide between immediate efficiency or long-term preparation. It's the kind of addition that makes you rethink the timing of every move, making resource management even more tense and rewarding.
With Connie Vogelmann's signature design and the stunning artwork by Clémentine Campardou, the expansion maintains the visual elegance of the original while expanding tactical possibilities. If you enjoy optimization, card combos, and the feeling of watching your ecosystem grow, Dragon Academy is the logical next step. It's the perfect chance to turn your dragon refuge into a center of academic excellence, where every new creature brings unique abilities that can completely shift the course of your strategy.
