Daniel (@dungeondive) opens with some heartfelt thanks and a renewed mission: focus more on affordable games, especially as the hobby creeps further into luxury territory. Enter Kingdom Legacy: Feudal Kingdoms, a solo legacy card game that costs less than a night out and lets you scratch that world-building itch without requiring a second mortgage. It’s light on components—just cards and a pen—but heavy on charm. Players will deface their own cards, scribble on the box, and tear up bits of the game as they shape a personalised kingdom one irreversible decision at a time.
The game is built around discovery, with a core set of 70 cards that slowly blossom into quests, enemies, and odd little narrative off-ramps depending on your choices. Forests become shrines or lumber mills. Bandits become workers (or problems). Sacred wells open portals to stranger things. There’s no hand management, just draw-play-discard—and yet the upgrade paths turn into a kind of slow-burn choose-your-own-adventure. For under twenty bucks, it’s surprisingly robust, refreshingly compact, and just eccentric enough to feel like you’re getting away with something.
