Description
The ship Destiny's Bounty is in danger: Villains are breaking in from all sides. In LEGO: NINJAGO – Destiny's Bounty Adventures each player chooses their own Ninja: Kai, Nya, Cole or Zane. You build the Ninja from real LEGO bricks and add new gear to them during the game. Serpents, pirates and even a bewildered postman await you along the way.
How to play LEGO: NINJAGO – Destiny's Bounty Adventures
The game is cooperative: you all win or lose together. On your turn you do three things. First you flip an Event Card. It brings in new Villains, moves the ones already on the ship, or places Mastery Tokens in the rooms. Then you move your Ninja as many rooms as it has Spinjitzu Tornadoes. Finally you clear the room: you collect the Mastery Tokens and defeat Villains if your strength is at least equal to theirs.
Defeated Villains and Mastery Tokens fill the Victory Track. Villains that reach the key parts of the ship fill the Villain Track. You win if the Victory Track fills up first.
Why you will like it
- You can call Ninja from connecting rooms into your room and add up your strength. Together you defeat a Villain that is too strong for one.
- Villains arrive on the ship face down. You only learn how strong they are when a Ninja enters the room.
- When you cover certain spaces on the Victory Track, all Ninja gain a new Spinjitzu Tornado or a Potential Card. The card brings a special ability, such as moving through walls, and new LEGO gear that you really attach to your Ninja.
- Each of the six adventures has its own story and new rules that you discover as you play. You start with Training, and the hardest one is labelled “Oh No!”.
Who is LEGO: NINJAGO – Destiny's Bounty Adventures for
The game is for 2 to 4 players aged 8 and up, and one adventure takes 30 to 45 minutes. It is medium-light in complexity, and players on BoardGameGeek like it best with two or three. Before your first game, take some time to sort the LEGO bricks. The rules suggest that the children do this while the adults read the rules.
Families and fans of the NINJAGO world who like to play together rather than against each other will enjoy it. If you are looking for a competitive game with a single winner, this is not the right choice.
