You are an ancient folklore character before their story was told. You and other characters are attending the prestigious Legend Academy to learn the skills and wisdom needed to take your place in history. Legend Academy is a competitive euro-style game that combines deck-building, worker placement, and dungeon crawling. Players will build a deck of skill cards in the Academy, and then go on famous quests from ancient tales (The Jungle Book, Lost World, Gulliver's Travels, and more). When on an adventure players play cards from their hand to move around the map and accomplish scenario specific goals, find treasure, defeat enemies, and try to impress the professor. Players gain points by learning new skills, accomplishing goals, and finding treasure. The player with the most points at the end will become valedictorian and win the game. –description from designer
