Overview

You may be familiar with our very silly card game "We Didn't Playtest This at All". It is silly, quick, and fun. We have an interesting idea on how to expand it: designing a version of Playtest that benefits from you writing on the cards! What's new about Legacies cards (compared to original We Didn't Playtest This at All cards) is they contain a slot for Owner and a picture. When you win a game of Playtest: Legacies, you claim ownership of the last card you played, by writing your name in the Owner box. FOREVER. If you own a card, you ignore it if it ever tells you that you lose. Playtest: Legacies is a full stand-alone game (60 cards plus mystery packs). It may also be combined with the original "We didn't Playtest This At All" and its expansions.
