As Allied forces battle the enemy on the war-torn beaches of Europe, another battle begins in a Brooklyn nursery when the terrifying Boggart kidnaps a boy and takes him to the Dark Realm. The child's toys, led by the toy soldier known as the Colonel, join forces to carry out a daring rescue mission. During their dangerous mission, they will face the boy's bitter and forgotten toys, as well as betrayal within their own ranks.

In The Stuff of Legend, each player takes on the role of one of the boy's trusty playthings, each with their own unique abilities. Players work together and search the Darkness for the boy before the Boggart can escape with him. Be on your guard, throughout the game your allegiances may change and at any time one of your fellow players may secretly team up with the evil Boggart against you.
