Update | Legacy Game Systems

Looking forward to 2020!

Well, it’s been a landmark year for Legacy Game Systems. We have the printed circuit boards being finished at the factory as we speak. The wands will be able to cast six spells of differing types: everything from a “Destroy” spell (yeah, it does that) to a “Slow” spell (If you move too fast, you…

At Legacy Game Systems, we've been busy developing the ultimate augmented reality platform for live gaming. It's been an exciting adventure, and we're so close to finally offering our magic dueling wands! As we make the final preparations for our wand game, we are happy to announce another venture we like to call Daemonwerks. A…

Our SpellSlingers based demo game has gotten a makeover recently! We've been moving along with the SpellSlingers mobile app, now that the hardware is done and the patents are pending. Incognita Limited has been doing great work incorporating our hardware into the software--so meanwhile we have been making sure the app will look and feel as great…

It's the end of 2017, and as we look back on our accomplishments we find ourselves really excited for the new year. It's been a long road at Legacy Game Systems, developing our new hardware and mobile augmented reality game, SpellSlingers. After two years of playtesting, we're getting close to having a finished product! In early 2018,…

This week we have sent our tested hardware to Matthew Webb at Incognita Limited for software development. This software will include a new and exciting app for our upcoming SpellSlingers game! We will begin alpha tests by December 17. We are very excited to be working alongside Incognita Limited and believe that together we will be able to bring…

As we've mentioned in a post back in January, Gesture Casting to Better Spells, we have been working on incorporating gesture technology into our wands. This means you'll be able to 'swish' and 'flick' your wand in order to cast different magic spells. [caption id="attachment_488" align="alignleft" width="500"] Of course, that means taking on certain responsibilities…

[caption id="attachment_402" align="alignleft" width="204"] Modern day wizards look a lot like the average "muggle!"[/caption] SpellSlingers, our magic dueling game, is developing into an exciting augmented reality experience! Originally we built SpellSlingers to be a game for the backyard and a few friends, but we've decided the game can easily be much more than that. SpellSlingers will now include a…

As we near hardware and software completion, we are now faced with the decision of how to package and ship our upcoming gear for SpellSlingers! We have several exciting (and related) announcements on the way, but in the meantime we are deciding on how best to ship you your wand, sensors, and hub. We want to…

Meet the Cast

Meet the Cast of our Trailer Video If you enjoyed our Legacy Game Systems trailer, then you have an entire cast and crew of people to thank! A lot of work went into showcasing our Daemon Platform using a zombie LARP game, including a great cast of "post-apocalyptic gamers." Let's give these actors a little credit, shall…

We are excited to announce that we are currently focusing on the design and user-interface of our upcoming SpellSlingers game. SpellSlingers is an augmented-reality game that that allows you to fight in magical duels with 1 or an entire group of your friends--turning your love of Harry Potter into a reality! Featuring a system that only requires a…

Gesture Casting to Better Spells

Gesture Casting to Better Spells We've been talking about how we're improving our system--and we're excited to share this little gem. We hope to improve spellcasting with our wands (and guns) by introducing "gesture casting." Gestures will be used to activate weapon skills or to cast spells, and will be used in combination with buttons…

Tech Improvements Based on YOUR Suggestions

Tech Improvements Based on YOUR Suggestions We are getting close to having our final hardware revision by the end of February! Let us tell you about some of the changes we've been making. After our demo at DragonCon, Ford felt like there wasn't enough excitement when casting a spell with our wands. Magic should have…

Augmented Reality Zombie Battles

Are you in love with post-apocalyptic movies, comics, TV-shows and video games? Ever considered fighting zombies...in reality? We're creating a system that allows you to live games in an AR setting, using minimal technology in order to keep track of your health, spells, and weapon abilities.

Whether you're a video gamer, laser tag enthusiast, or long-time LARPer, we believe we have found a way to take your game to a whole new, immersive level. Fight zombies, goblins, or whatever else your heart desires thanks to Legacy Game System's Daemon Platform--hardware that allows you to LIVE the game.

UI Development Underway

Our graphic designer and app coder met last week to discuss the official User Interface (UI) for our Daemon Platform. There have been quite a few iterations over the last year, and we're getting closer to something we are really proud to show off.

The main question is how we will be able to build a base app that will be able to support different games. To test this, we will be creating an app specifically for our wizard duel game, Spell Slingers (formerly called Wizard Wars).

More information to come soon!

The Daemon Platform Trailer is HERE!

Our Daemon Platform, a hardware system that allows for immersive and realistic game-play, is showcased in this new trailer video. You can play games like this one with our equipment--making it possible to fight with weapons, guns, archery, and magic!

Whether you want to play in a post-apocalyptic setting or a medieval fantasy one, our Daemon Platform simplifies the game and does the math for you. No more counting hit points in your head. Everything is done in real-time without needing WiFi or cell phone coverage.

Don't just play the game. Live the Game.
