Legends of Novus is a fantasy adventure game, placing you in control of a heroic character who is embarking on a journey across the mythical world of Novus in an effort to help rid the world of powerful creatures who are terrorizing the lands... The game is designed for 1-5 players, ages 13+, and takes between 60 to 90 minutes to play (less for Solo play). The game has a combination of a physical character sheet and card based equipment attached to it. The variety of initial characters, and classes they can advance to make the game re-playable with a different game play experience each time. The world story, and the ability to navigate the world with a free roam aspect (and no dice rolling controlling how far or where you can travel to), gives the players a strong sense of control over their fate. The multiple paths to gaining XP also give the players a chance to explore different character strengths and game strategies in their goal to become a Legend of Novus. —description from the publisher
