## Overview

Legacy of Yu is a solo-only, campaign-style board game set in ancient China where players build canals and defend villages using worker placement and deck management mechanics. With quick setup, dynamic story-driven progression, and a fully resettable nonlinear campaign, it offers 60 minutes of tense, strategic gameplay designed for ages 14+.

## Description

LEGACY OF YU is a solo-only, fully-resettable, nonlinear campaign game in which you step into the role of the legendary hero of the Xia Dynasty, Yu the Great. It will be your job to build the canals ahead of the impending flood, while also defending your growing village against neighboring barbarian tribes. With each game, stories will be shared and new gameplay elements added. The campaign features a self-balancing system which adapts to how well you are doing. The campaign ends once you either win or lose seven games. During the reign of Emperor Yao, the people of ancient China were constantly plagued by deadly floods along the Yellow River. Eager to put an end to the devastation, Yao selected Gun, one of his officials, to devise a plan. After nine years of failed attempts using dams and dikes, Gun's employment came to a questionable end. After his passing, Yu inherited his father's work. Learning from Gun's failures, Yu set out to construct a series of canals to direct the surging river into nearby fields and smaller waterways. While elements might change from game to game, the aim for each remains the same: to finish the Canals before it’s too late You win the game if you successfully build all 6 Canal sections and survive till the end of the current Round. The new elements will be added during each game, and also at the end of each game, regardless of whether you win or lose. You'll read stories of triumph and trial, success and suffering. All this is driven by the Story Book and Story Deck. The campaign is non-linear and resettable - meaning that each time it will play out differently. Once you're done with the campaign, you can reset to play again, or pass it on to a friend for them to enjoy. No components are destroyed or modified when playing. Number of Players: Solo (1 player). For Ages: 14+, Playing Time: 60 min.

Review: Very good solo board game - I really like this board game, it’s perfect for solo play. It uses worker-placement and hand-management mechanics. Also, the setup and cleanup are very quick (2 minutes), and it doesn’t take up much table space, so it’s very easy to bring it out to play. The campaign is simple but interesting. After each game, some cards are added that can make the rest of the games either easier or more difficult. The only negative thing I can say is that in the card market, there aren’t many meaningful decisions to make as you always want to buy as many cards as possible to make your deck thicker (since it determines when the flow of the river advances and also because you lose cards easily due to building canals and barbarians’ attacks). I recommend it for people who enjoy playing solo!
Review: Amazing production, Amazing game! - This is the perfect game for solo players for replayability, quality, difficuly, and much more. The story isn't heavily involved, but it's an excellent touch that is worth appreciating, rounding out a must buy for any game enthusiast.
