Gascony's Legacy (2021)

About this game

The 17th Century is an age of enlightenment and renaissance. For some, it's an age of chivalry but for others it's an age of corruption. France is in danger of becoming despoiled by both greed and tyranny. Her only hope lies with the King's Musketeers! Gascony's Legacy is a cooperative tactical battle and adventure game for 1-4 players. Each player controls one of the legendary members of the Musketeer Corps and their allies on a swashbuckling adventure against the Cardinal's forces. Fight your way through a four-story campaign based on the novel by Alexandre Dumas to foil the Cardinal's plans before he takes control of France and sends it into darkness forever! All for one and one for all!

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 1 to 4. It has a designed solo mode.
• Rules load. At 2.6/5 this is a mid-weight game — expect a proper rules explanation before you start.
• Age. The publisher suggests 14 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
