About the game
Legends of Draxia is a fantasy strategy card game that utilizes resource management to kill monsters, make buildings, and cast spells. Players will pull 3 random cards from the character deck, each with a secret end-game bonus, and choose one, discarding the others. Players take turns pulling two resource cards from the main deck into their hand. Based on what resources they have in their hand and from any buildings they have built, players can buy spells, construct buildings, or fight monsters. Resources must be wisely spent while not exposing the player's secret end-game bonus. Game ends after all cathedral buildings are constructed or monster deck is exhausted. Players tally points for the buildings they constructed and monsters they have destroyed, along with the end-game character bonus. Player with the highest points wins.
