White Wizard Games Star Realms: Colony Wars

Well balenced, easy enough to learn, in-depth and evolving strategy

Star Realms is an excellent deck building game and probably the best out there currently. However, the game suffers from balancing as in all deck builders. White Wizards has done a better job at this than anyone else, but there are still run away games certain players never have a chance to win. Skilled players can win the majority of the time.

Star Realms: Colony Wars is an easy game to pick up, and is a blast to play with 1-3 friends. I wish the cards held up a little better than they do, but this is probably a function of how often we play and what we are snacking on and drinking as we play.

Solid two person game. Still fun if you add another deck for 4 person play. Most friends seem taken with it once introduced. Though the life counting system really really seems to throw a lot of people off.

This card game is so fun and easy to learn. Its probably one of my favorite games. It’s a lot easier to learn than other deck building games. You won’t be disappointed buying this game. The thing that I like about this game is since the deck is so big and there is so much card diversity, the game is different everytime you play. One game you’ll primarily get defense cards, another you’ll get a lot of aggressive cards. I never get tired of this game!

Very fun!!

fund game i played with my son on a hunting trip we got a buck so that was fun too

Good cards and cool art. The cards in this set seem a little bit more powerful and complicated than the base set. That has its pluses and its minuses. Ones turn takes longer adding up all the different effects and points. There does seem to be more strategy, potentially, due to all the volatile special abilities; but honestly at this point I am pretty happy with the simplicity of the base set. I think I like the base game better by just a bit. That could just be because I am used to the cards in the base game. Again, pluses and minuses to this set. Some will like it because it requires more thought and a little more depth, and others will prefer the simplicity of the base set. At this point I lean towards the latter. I really like how the base set stays firm at around 17-20 minutes game time. This new set is so volatile that this window opens up to 7-35 minutes. Part of what I like about Star Realms is what you get for the time frame. This set causes that time frame to be more unpredictable. However, this would be a great second set if you were going to play teams, which I highly recommend doing. It will offer some great variety in team games. 8/10 Rating

Simple to learn. Fun to play over and over. A great deck builder.

Love this game. So well made.
