This one is on my Christmas wishlist. It has similarities to Catan and Dice Forge with how the dice get you stuff which I like. But also the engine building seems fun. I hope the card variety is good enough to not get bored of the engine building puzzle after 5 or so games.
it should be ok for that. Its also pretty quick once you get the hang of it.
Income is a must because of one rule that can be easily missed: when you spend money you spend it all no matter how much was remaining from the purchase. Card powers can break that rule.
Very true, that’s a rule I adore in this game - spend anything and it’s all gone.
Not a big fan of card games but I thoroughly enjoyed this one. Maybe cause all the time everyone is anxious to the dice rolls 😂
Terrific quick review of a fun game. It really is pretty straightforward, but the rulebook is a chore.
Yeah, the comment at the end of the video sums this one up. It has totally and utterly fired Machi Koro as a game for me personally. Anyone else also find that? Or what other games fired games so directly for you?
Machi Koro wasn't really good enough for me. I wonder how much better this is, because I really wanted to like Machi Koro
Games about the final frontier are always awesome and if they have dice even better, although I don´t like Alien Frontiers LOL. Machi Koro not my type.
Machi Koro fired itself very quickly, but I do agree, that this is a game I would recommend to somebody who wishes to advance from Catan.
I absolutely love this game! Only problem is that I've never won a match although I usually am very good ad boardgames. Why I always lose? Because I have so much fun playing it, I am hyper focussed on expanding my base and developping the engine to make points, while my friends directly go for VPs... I still love playing this game and probably will not win for a long time....
I've never played machi koro despite eyeballing the legacy edition, but I've played space base multiple times thanks to the previous tabletop cafe. I've had loads of fun with friends and space base. Such a fun easy dice game
1:56 12 is not in the right position, right? the cost is 12 not the position
Thanks for review. Interesting mechanics in game but i don't like the theme. Probably i should try machi koro
Fair enough, I think machi Koro is mechanically a bit worse for sure though
I really like the gameplay of Space Base but wish it could have different or better art.
I know! It's not like bad art style but wow do I not want it in this game
I think its dinky. Not great or amazing or anything. But gives it that family friendly look.
Weird card sizes too
@@3MBG makes me think of a low rez knock off of the old transformers tv show haha
Lol, cant unsee now
The cards are so small I don't even pay attention to the art.
I know this is supposed to be better MK but you can cheese this game just as badly as MK. If you focus on buying 5/6 cards with red rewards that grant VP, then you have a steady pace towards winning regardless of who is rolling. In other words claiming those cards alone and scraping by for credits and income is way more reliable for winning. A shame because it reduces the game to a simple strategy.
I think thats the inevitable nature of this style of game
@@3MBG ikr? It is fun but man when the one player is lucky enough to have the right ships for purchase on their turn, it feels like watching a snowball get bigger. Ah well. Keep this over MK
I think these are great games for casuals and kids, but once they figure out they can break it, its something you can leave behind. Plenty of folk never will though and thats fine
Love this game, only downside is, that you _have_ to hate-draft in order to prevent somebody running away with the uber-dominant red arrow strategy.
I had so much playing this game but probably because I crushed my buddy. I really like the engine building aspect. You are correct however in that some cards require meticulous reading in the rule book.
I have no memory of that play
Have you played valeria card kingdoms? Is space base better?
No i haven't sorry
A cracking game that you’re bang on when you say “a better Machi Koro” - far superior.
Our table struggles at times with the tucking cards underneath, especially late game when there’s quite a few. Rulebook is pretty naff and, again, you’re quite right about the fiddliness of the special powers.
Should also say I’ve completely removed one card from the game. In a game of no direct interaction, it boggles my mind there’s a card that REMOVES victory points. We’ve found this to be a massively unenjoyable card, dragging out game length and bringing neither player much joy. We love some interaction in games - such as Militia in Dominion or angry red cards in Terraforming Mars - but it feels completely nonsensical to include just one of these.
Should say again, despite these gripes, a really fun game 👍
0:28 Did that "3" market card just become an "E"? Haha
Hahaha, yeah, didnt notice the top card was upside down. lol
One of my favourite games. There are a few take-that cards, which I can remove. I say it's for the kids but mostly I got crushed by a buddy!
It's like they skinned a space theme over craps (the casino dice game). Interesting.
This is a really good game, I remember thinking about it long after it was over!
So it’s a weird engine builder? Looks fun
Nice summary. Space Base is one of our favorites, especially with the added mechanics from the Shy Pluto story expansion. It's also very easy to teach to non-gamers. With the Command Center you can play with up to 7, and we find it makes a fun party game as long as everyone has a decent build-up of ships within the first few rounds.
Yeah, its definitely a keeper
nice video 👌 the ship card in 12 position is in the wrong place 😬🙈 it cost 12 but gors in the 4 position
Trekking the World has killed ticket to ride for me. Feels like it but does so much more.
Don't like music in video tutorials. Sorry to be negative. Have listened to past tutorials of your and didn't notice the music. This may just be me but thought you may appreciate some feedback👍
it's part of the format, normally quite back in the mix. I've noticed on some videos for some unknown reason the music is more pronounced on head phones. But the facts are the music is part of the whole package, and drives the pace of the videos along, and has long contributed to the success of the format. Might not work for some, but seems to work for most.
@@3MBG I was actually listening with a more expensive 🎧 headphones so maybe that was the issue as the music was very pronounced. I usually use my ear buds👍
Yeah, its weird and i have no idea why it happens that way at all. Like, to me, on speakers, headphones and buds the music is way back in the mix. And every time someone mentions it being too loud, its always headphones. Some weird technical thing happening I dont get, but definitely not intended.
This is sort of like tiny epic galaxies
