What I love about this game is a new player can play it instantly and learn on the go, by the first few rounds they can usually carry themselves, pausing occasionally to explain a few cards here and there.
Mentioned on BGG, but for YT... Great review as always. Just to clarify, first to 40 points doesn't win the game, 40 just indicates the final round; highest points tallied wins.
Amazing, thanks for the positive re-enforcement, just picked the base game and Shy Pluto expansion up today for £30, I assume you recommend getting the other expansions at some point?
Machi Koro is better with expansions. I think they fixed the base game problems in Machi Koro 2. But watching your playthrough of Space Base it was obvious everyone was having a blast. Problem is, granddad loved Machi Koro before burning out on it, so I don't think I can pull out another similar game.
@@BoardGameBollocks The scenarios are designed mostly for just introducing the new mechanics a half dozen cards at a time. There are two modules at the end of the campaign, the first module is worth a play but it isn't all that great, then you'll just want to leave the second module shuffled into the game as a new option, especially at the higher player counts. It's not that important that you play through with the same group either imo.

If I had to chose between sb and other tableu games, I would go with Valeria Card Kingdoms. Lot's of fun, engaging, and has great artwork.
Finally got this to the table with the mrs last night and it's an instant hit - look forward to trying it at higher player counts

If we included every rule we’d never get the video out 👍🏻
I'm totally addicted to this game

The other one is just a box really

I thought the harbour expansion made Machi Koro a bit messy but it was still ok. Give space base a go…it’s different enough
Just ordered it today!
Great timing 😀
Word up!
@@BoardGameBollocks Cameo!
Great game ! Pluto expansion is a must buy
Thought about it. Is it a campaign style expansion or can you play the scenarios independently of each other at anytime?

Good review.
This game is on Board Game Arena if you want to play on your phone also.
I don’t play video games 😉
I really like this game, find it a lot of fun. Great video
I’ll get it then.
Cheers.
Agree 100%
Start of the video...has expansion big box, has cards sleeved...I think I know where this is going.
I think it’s best with 4+ players.
