White Wizard Games Star Realms: Colony Wars

Its a good idea to get this expansion when buying the original. Having the expansion allows you to play with 3 to 4 players. Plus the game gets more interesting when there are more than 2 players.

awesome new cards for a really fun game!

Family really like Star Realms, so got this expansion so we could play 3 or 4 players or 2 games with 2 players. Pretty much the same game as Star Realms with a little variation with the ships and base/outposts. Like the theme of the game and the graphics on the cards are good. Like that you can win with different factions and faction combos (no one faction is overpowering), so games are usually different. Only issues are that the card stock is lower quality and more flimsy than the Star Realm cards I already have. I like and dont like the card box. It is nice because it is very portable but it is not great quality and after a few weeks am already taping the box to keep it together. Would like something more study to protect the cards. Overall, it is an enjoyable game.

My husband loves it.

Very entertaining game, this is my second deck so I can play with more than two people.

Love! Favorite Christmas gift!

Some of the cards help round out the factions, but overall the entire set tends to be way overpowered (too many low cost cards that do lots of damage) and takes away the strategy of building faction synergy. You just buy the best cards and play with luck. Adding in events and the extra draws and buying power really can give some one-sided advantages. I only included a few cards from this set into my trade deck. The B&B and F&F sets already added enough variety to one main deck. I felt like this set took the fun out of the original set. I might modify some of the cost values and then try to play with them to be more consistent with the original deck.

Easy to play and very simple to learn.

I love the game but it wasnt new.

Great little game. Easy to teach and two player game doesnt take long.
