What are epic adventure board games?

Epic adventure games are built around the feeling of going on a journey. They often include storytelling, scenarios, character growth, exploration, campaign structure, or dramatic moments that make a game feel larger than a single puzzle or score track. Some games on this list may be legacy style games, meaning they are designed to be played once through several episodes.

Popular epic adventure games

Gloomhaven, Mage Knight, and Sleeping Gods are strong examples because each turns a long session into a story of exploration, growth, and difficult choices.
