About the game
The Legend of Aquiny is a cooperative, evolving campaign with 10 chapters. Two to four players can play as one of the four heroes and advance through the Adventure Book to solve the mystery of the Legend of Aquiny. Each chapter requires you to achieve several objectives in order to succeed. If one of the objectives is not achieved, you will have to start the chapter again until you have achieved all the objectives in order to move on to the next one. Some chapters are in two parts. You will be invited to read the next section once you have achieved specific objectives. The material is evolving! When you successfully achieve a chapter, you can open a new envelope to unlock new materials... and new rules! The number of players can vary from one chapter to the next. So you can start the adventure with four players, move up to two, and finish the story with three. —description from the designer

Some setups, rules and scoring details may still vary by player count, so check your edition’s rulebook for the exact configuration.
The listed playing time for Valroc: The Legend of Aquiny is 60–90 minutes. This is the publisher’s estimate for a full game. The actual duration depends on the group, the player count and familiarity with the rules: first sessions usually run longer, while experienced groups often finish faster. Setup and teaching time are not included in this estimate.
The catalogue lists Valroc: The Legend of Aquiny for ages 14 and up. This is the publisher’s recommendation and reflects reading demands, rule complexity and small components rather than theme alone.

Valroc: The Legend of Aquiny belongs to these categories: Card Game, Adventure, and Expansion for Base-game. Its main mechanics are Variable Player Powers, Push Your Luck, and Area Majority / Influence. Categories describe the theme and setting of a game, while mechanics describe what players actually do on their turns.

The credited designers of Valroc: The Legend of Aquiny are: Thomas Carlier and Julien Schouckens.

Designer pages on MeepleRules collect other titles by the same designers, which helps when you enjoy a game and want to find similar ones.
The catalogue lists Valroc: The Legend of Aquiny as an expansion for Valroc. Expansions add new content, rules or scenarios to the base game and usually cannot be played on their own, so you need Valroc to use it. Check that your edition of Valroc is compatible, as some expansions were revised between editions.
