Legendary Creatures

About this board game

Legendary Creatures is a board game for 2–4 players, played in about 120 minutes, in which apprentices compete over three days to become the next Druid.

Excitement fills the halls of Kajan, the School of Life, as the High Council announces a Trial of Nature’s Grace. Each apprentice receives an Amulet, the same three spells, and an identical group of fantastic creatures that provide magical energy and remarkable abilities.

During each day, players take part in AM, Afternoon, and PM turns. They draw four creatures from their individual decks, place three into their stable, and send one on a solo expedition. The order and types of creatures chosen determine initiative and resource generation for the round.

• Choose the elemental realm in which to travel.
• Select the resources generated by your creatures.
• Cast spells to support your progress.
• Send creatures on expeditions to distant landmarks.

These choices are repeated throughout each portion of the day, with a final expedition taking place at the end of the PM portion. Players seek renown in the eyes of their teachers and, most importantly, the fantastic creatures aiding their quest.

Victory depends on an apprentice’s final rank in each elemental realm, renown earned through great feats, and expeditions to distant landmarks. In Legendary Creatures, ultimate leadership in each realm and success on expeditions award victory points, determining who wins the trial and advances to the rank of Druid.
