What to Expect
You command an animal clan (cats, pandas, sharks, scorpions, etc.) and manage a personal 4x4 grid that you modify and upgrade during play. Turns use an action tile to activate zones of the grid, triggering effects; you manage food as a key resource and develop your engine to meet clan-specific victory conditions or pursue military victory.
Who Is This Game For?
LEDA is aimed at experienced two-player groups and fans of asymmetric duels; the game is rated for ages 14+. With a roughly 30-minute playtime it suits short, focused head-to-head sessions and expects familiarity with asymmetric systems and resource management.
How It Works
Each player controls a clan with unique rules and objectives and modifies a personal 4x4 tableau. The core mechanism is Grid Coverage: an action tile defines which grid zone is activated and which effects occur. Players play clan cards onto their tableau, upgrade tiles, and manage food as the main resource to optimize their engine and pursue victory.
What Makes It Special
Designed by Pierrick Libralesso, Renaud Libralesso and Yoel Sayada, LEDA mixes asymmetric clan mechanics with Grid Coverage and Tableau Building. It is a dedicated two-player title and emphasizes anthropomorphic animal themes.
Pro
- Asymmetric clans create varied playstyles
- Short playtime (~30 minutes) for quick rematches
- Grid Coverage plus Tableau Building offers tactical choices

Contra
- Only for two players
- Requires learning asymmetrical rules

Setting & atmosphere
Set in the fictional realm of Leda, various animal clans have developed distinct civilizations, languages and ambitions. The theme is anthropomorphic animals within a card-game framework.
Tips for beginners
Focus first on understanding the grid activation and basic resource (food) management; explore your clan's asymmetry step by step.
