The Dwarves have the earth, the Goblins have the sea, the Fairies have the forest, and what do the Gnomes have? A junkyard full of everyone else's trash. But soon enough they'll have the sky!
Legends of Dsyx: Derelict Dirigible is a solitaire roll-and-write adventure game in which players build an airship and use it to go on adventures. Each turn, the player rolls dice to scavenge resources; these resources can then be used to construct various airships parts. The parts are selected from a menu, all have different sizes and resource requirements, and must be connected in order to function, by being drawn by the player in a grid. Players must manage their resources and fuel to create a versatile airship, as adventures have specific lift and speed requirements in order to be successfully completed.
Once the last hourglass is filled in on the time track, the session is over and scores are calculated. Players can compete with others or themselves to earn the highest score, indicating airship virtuosity!
Released in the October 2018 Board Game of the Month Club $5+ package.
