Game Description

Lost Legacy is a game of risk, deduction, and luck for 2–4 players.

Set-Up

Shuffle the deck, deal one to each person and place one face down next to the deck to create the ruins.

Game Play

On your turn, draw a card and place the card in front of you and resolve its ability.

This continues until someone can’t draw a card or they are the last player standing.

If they are the last player standing they score a point and a new round begins.

If they can’t draw a card, the investigation phase begins. Announce a number in ascending order, starting with 1 and if a player has a card of that number they reveal it.

They pick a card in the ruins or another player’s hand. If they pick the Lost Legacy they score a point, if not, the next highest ranked card in a player’s hand gets to pick.

If two players have the same value, or they have an ‘X’ card, they do not get to pick.

Game End

Once one person has won a number of tokens depending on the player count the game ends.

Lost Legacy Round-Up

Being a big fan of Love Letter this was an instant buy for me. We play Love Letter a lot and both versions (Tempest and Kanai Factory) give a different feel so it’s great to have more games with that same system.

Each version of Lost Legacy feels quite different and you even have to change tactics slightly to win each version. Having them be different this way means you’re keeping this great game nice and fresh, even if it means buying a few copies of virtually the same game.

Another great thing about Lost Legacy is that you can combine 2 sets (removing one of the Lost Legacies) to play up to 6 players. While a bit slower, it works.

Lost Legacy Rating

One of my favourite games.

I give it 8/10
