About the game
Long ago, dragons and giants fought a thousand-year war...and the human survivors commemorated these battles by adding the giants to their high stakes card game of luck and skill, Three-Dragon Ante. Three-Dragon Ante: Legendary Edition – Giants War includes more than one hundred cards, featuring a new way to find legendary dragons, new giant gods, and new giant suits that let you split the stakes in two: the dragon stakes and the giants stakes. Players fight for the stakes where their flight is strongest, giving them new routes to victory.
