  • An Awesome Expansion For An Already Awesome Game!
TLDR: Star Realms is an awesome deck building game that will constantly challenge you to pick the most valuable buy for your deck. At first glance, this game may seem luck based, but the game definitely does reward strategy and good decision making. Overall the game is designed to be most strategic in a two-player game setting, but I love adding more decks to play with more players. Star Realms is very similar to Dominion and even more similar to Ascension (except instead of monsters in the middle, you kill the other players and eliminate them to win the game). There are four different colors (factions) that all have slightly different mechanics and reward you for synergizing your deck well. This is a must have game for any deck-building fan and I would say a must have game for anyone who calls themselves a board game enthusiast! NEW TO STAR REALMS (Experienced Star Realms Players, Skip To Next Section): Star Realms is a deck building game where each player starts out with 8 cards that give 1 gold and 2 cards that give 1 combat. Each player will take turns buying cards from the center trade row of 5 cards off the top of the deck that will give them more gold, combat and abilities. The goal of the game is to eventually use your combat damage to deal 50 damage to the other player and eliminate them from the game. There are four different colors of cards (blue, yellow, red and green), each of which has their own unique kind of play style. Blue is kind of the jack of all trades and is the only color that can let you gain life back. Yellow often focuses on having cards replace themselves and helping you filter your deck, while making your opponents discard. Red is focused on thinning your deck and cutting out the bad cards to make it so you more frequently draw your powerful cards. Green is mostly focused on all out damage and killing the opponent as fast as possible. Star Realms is fun and unique, because every time you are going to shuffle up the deck, and the cards available for you to buy are going to be different. This means, that good players are going to learn how to play every single color and how to evaluate the value of cards based on the current contents of their deck and the point of the game. For instance, red cards that thin your deck are much better earlier on, because you get more of the thinning throughout the duration of the game. And cards that let you draw if you have played another card of the same color are even better later on in the game when you already have cards of that color. There are two major variants of cards: ships (vertical cards) and bases (horizontal cards). Ships will always be discarded at the end of your turn and once your deck runs out will be shuffled back into your deck. But, when you play bases, they stay out in front of you and provide a lasting effect until your opponents destroy them. Once a base is destroyed it is sent to your discard pile and eventually you will draw it again. There are two kinds of bases: regular and outposts. Regular bases can be ignored and your opponents can shoot right past them to attack you as a player (not recommended, but a valid option). Outposts on the other hand must be attacked before any of your other bases or you as a player can be attacked. All damage to bases is only kept until the end of the turn, so sometimes if an enemy doesn't have enough damage to destroy an outpost, all of the damage is negated. Star Realms is an awesome game, and at the price point there is really no reason not to buy it. The box is small enough to fit in your pocket and you can literally take it with you wherever you go. I would definitely recommend both this stand-alone expansion and the base game to anyone who is interested in any form of deckbuilding game. Enjoy! (Please like this review if it was helpful to you!) WHAT"S NEW? (For Experienced Star Realms Players) : Star Realms: Colony Wars is what I would consider the first major expansion for Star Realms. Yes... there was the Crisis expansion that came in the form of four different booster packs, and the gambits, but this is the first big expansion that you can buy, all in one box. To be honest, there isn't a lot that is brand new, just a lot of variation on past cards. Some of them are even named similarly. For example: Swarmer (Blob ship; Cost: 1; 3 combat- you may scrap a card from the trade row, Ally ability: 2 combat; Basically the battle pod - 1 damage for 1 less gold), Patrol Cutter (Trade Federation Ship; Cost: 3; 2 gold 3 combat; Ally ability: 4 authority; Basically the cutter, but with damage and healing flipped), Trade Hauler (Trade Federation Ship; Cost: 2; 3 gold; Ally ability: 3 authority; Basically the trade federation version of the trade pod). However, there also some cool new cards and features! One such feature is cards that let you put them or cards you buy directly into your hand based on ally ability triggers. This is really cool and can really make you change the way you play. Also, they seem to have added more variety to the way bases are setup. There are a couple of bases with really low health that provide interesting benefits, which is a new variety that I liked. It is hard to put my finger on it, but there is a unique taste to the bases that did feel fresh. Also, they have added at least one major, expensive card to each color. You can find most of the cards in the expansion here: (...). If you are looking for a Star Realms expansion that will completely change the way you play the game and add whole new mechanics, then this probably isn't what you are looking for. But, if you are an avid Star Realms fan that is looking to freshen up your experience with some new variance, then this is a great set to pick up! To really make the experience fresh, I have combined this deck with a deck of the original to make it so every game is a very unique experience. I would wholly recommend it!

  • Great expansion pack or game on it's own
We have the original Star Realms game and love it. We got this to add more players to our original game (comes with only enough cards for 4 players and this has enough for 2 more players). You can play this with only two people or add the cards to the original game deck. Really powerful cards and adds a lot of fun! Good value! We added sleeves to the cards to prevent from wear and tear. ... show more

  • Arguably the Best Game Ever
This is my current favorite game. It is actual an expansion to the original Star Realms card game but with a better overall feel. This expansion includes everything required for the game and can be used without the original set at all. Used with the original it will allow for more than two players. So why do I love this, it is fast with just the right amount of straregy. The creators did a great job of keeping decision making opportunities limited. Consequently, even beginners pick up the game quickly and we can get on with playing. A brief description: Star Realms plays like a somewhat simpler version of Legendary or Dominion. It is a deck building style game. The original and Colony Wars both include the base cards as well as a full set of draftable cards. There is no collectible element, although there are some other expansions that modify the play of the game. The card artwork is great. There are a variety of different approaches all of which can result in a win. Gameplay is simply enough for my 8 year old and full enough for my brother in law and I to spend hours playing together. The game typically take 15 to 20 minutes including setup and teardown. My brother in law and I can play in about 7 minutes. I would love to see another game from the designers. Again, maybe the best game ever... ... show more

  • Fantastic, portable game for two
I bought this as I wanted a 2-player game I could carry with me. I'm a big fan. It's very easy to learn, but also has quite a bit of depth and strategy to it. It fits in a small box and doesn't take up a lot of space, so you can take it anywhere. Games generally go quick, and there is very little downtime. "Scoring" can get cumbersome at times, especially when performing large combos that are possible late game. The base game is great as is, but the expansions are also worth having if you enjoy it. They add new elements which open up different play styles, allowing for a lot of variety. For the price, you can't go wrong. I actually purchased a second copy, as I wanted to keep a travel set after adding the expansions. ... show more

  • An addicting game with a good balance of luck and strategy
This is an excellent card game. My wife and I purchased this to expand the original star realms that we already had, although we did play it once as a stand alone deck. This game is just as good as the original, and makes a great expansion. I love that there are some new abilities of cards, such as putting a purchased card directly into your hand. We play this game frequently, way more than any other game. We are not avid board game players or card gamers, but this one is certainly an exeption. There is quite a bit of luck involved but there is also strategy, and there are many different strategies you can take. I highly recommend this game to anyone looking for a good 2+ player game. It is lots of fun, the games usually last 20-40 minutes so you can usually squeeze at least a few in an hour. It's a great game to bring along camping or to family gatherings (just need an additional deck for every 2 extra players). I recommend getting the score counter app, much easier than using the cards to keep score ... show more
