Depends on your group
- Our take
- BGG rates it 7.21 from 2,306 ratings. The guide likes Gambits but says Cosmic Gambit is the better first buy; this set adds solo and co-op cards and may feel underwhelming second.
- What you need first
- Just the base game
Star Realms · Mini expansion
Star Realms: Gambit Set
- What it adds
- Gambit cards plus solo and co-op cards and three Merc Cruisers for the trade deck.
