    Scoring System
    5 - My favorite games. I'm disappointed when anyone I play games with doesn't like it, because it means I might play it less often.
    4 - A great game. Almost always going in my collection.
    3 - A solid game. Enjoyed it and can recommend it, but may or may not stay in my collection.
    2 - I'm either not the target audience for the gameplay, or too many issues with it.
    1 - An arguably bad game.

    Thanks for this, Alex. I'm glad you enjoyed playing it.
    I like the idea of a factions tracker we'll look into that. Also, the sun points have actually changed since you played. It now does what you said. PLUS, there are three other scoring variants to chose from for the sun now 🙂

    I just talked about this game in my Crowdfunding Update video! Visually with the circular board & cubes & even the engine building, it keeps reminding me of Terraforming Mars but with dice.

    You have become big enough to warrant multiple spam😜 what would be the best / recommended player count for this game?

    Looks like it has a lot of similarities to Circadians from Garphill Games

      Does this game add enough to need both?

    I was getting the game totally wrong when I look at it... Thanks man looking your video help me to make a skip, not easy because is still a good game, but I have (we all have) to make some choices, we cannot take everything.

    Solar Storm has similar box art. That's about all I like about this game. SS is more of a 4x game; sort of TI lite.

      Gotcha, this one is tight and heavy, more euro-y.

      Yeah, none of our games are 4x (yet!). Storm is a coop survival game. Sphere is dice placement/euro.

    Great review, I've heard before about the game but there wasn't any actually video in grade quality before only interviews
    Solar storm was nice didn't bought it because it felt one time game to me...
    The idea of this game looks great but I'm unique - I'm not a fan of games of vp winning condition 🤷
    Anyway just jumped to say great video because we haven't any good video about it until now, but the vp games are still not for me (bored to death by this winning conditions)

    Space Themed kingsburg is what I expected when I saw the cover & setup for this game. It looks too heavy for what it is, I'll pass.
