About this game

The game that launched the legacy genre. Start with familiar Risk territory control, then watch the game permanently transform over 15 sessions: cities are founded, continents are named, factions evolve, sealed packets reveal new rules, and the board is permanently altered with stickers. Wins and losses echo across future games as the world you create becomes uniquely yours. The campaign arc takes simple Risk combat and layers in escalating surprises that redefine what a board game can be.
