It’s Lion versus Scorpion, samurai versus assassin, in this exciting, standalone game set in the world of Legend of the Five Rings as players will use their limited resources, wits, and guile to outthink and outmaneuver their opponent. Deductive reasoning, planning, and a little luck will determine whether you triumph – or meet your fate at the end of a steel blade!

Risk Legacy
When you play a game of Risk, it gets personal. Always. But the game was never a casualty of your wars. Until now! How will you shape your world? In Risk Legacy, every game you play will change every future game. Defend a territory, weaken an opponent, or upgrade a faction: a decision you make in Game 1 could come back to haunt you in Game 10! The risks you take in Risk Legacy are not like those in any other board game. You and your opponents will shape how your world evolves – its history, its cities, even its factions – and how they fight. You don’t forget past betrayals – and neither does the game. But, the game itself holds secrets! Uncover new rules, new components, and new surprises and watch events unfold as you play more games. No two Risk Legacy games will EVER be the same!
