Legacy & campaign

Experience an epic adventure with legacy and campaign board games

Are you looking for a board game experience that goes far beyond a single evening of play? In the legacy and campaign board game category, you embark on a captivating, ongoing story where your choices have permanent consequences. You play through a series of consecutive scenarios, often with the exact same group of players. What you decide, discover, or unlock in the first game directly impacts the rest of the adventure. This creates unprecedented tension at the table, as literally every action counts and the game world fully adapts to your performance and decisions.

What is the difference between legacy and campaign?

While both types of games offer a long-lasting adventure, there's a key difference in the execution. With a true legacy board game, you permanently change the physical components. You stick stickers on the board, write names on cards, or even tear up parts whenever the game prompts you to do so. This makes your copy of, for example, Pandemic legacy of My city completely unique over time. A campaign board game, like the immense Gloomhaven or the narrative The Lord of the Rings: Journeys in Middle Earth, offers an equally deep story and character development, but leaves the gameplay elements intact. This allows you to frequently reset and relive the campaign afterward.

The ultimate dedication to your player group

Starting a game like this is the best reason to gather your regular group of players together weekly or monthly. Just like a gripping TV series, you'll want to know how the story continues after each session. You'll see your own character grow stronger, unlock new abilities, and open mysterious, hidden boxes containing brand-new game components. Gather your friends, choose a fascinating world to explore together, and immerse yourself in an unforgettable board game experience you'll remember for a long time to come.
