Kingdom Legacy: Ambitions is an expansion for Kingdom Legacy: Feudal Kingdom released in 2025 for 1 player and ages 14 and up. It was designed by Jonathan Fryxelius and its main mechanics are Hand Management, Push Your Luck, and Events.
This is an expansion for Kingdom Legacy. It offers 5 rounds of play, and 30 new cards to explore. After purging most of your permanent cards, Ambitions offers a plethora of new ones. Each round, discover 4 new cards but destroy one of them. Many cards offer a choice between fame and production. To play, purge ALL permanent cards. However, you may save any of them by lowering the normal purge 1 step for each card you save. The normal purge is 11, so if you save 3 cards, you will instead perform a purge 8. It is time to leave the past behind and plan for the future. There are plenty of opportunities to choose from, and no matter what you choose, there will surely be obstacles along the way.You have already gathered all your advisors to discuss what projects to embark on for the coming decade.
