Depends on your group
- Our take
- BGG rates it 7.33 from 177 ratings. The guide calls it fairly underwhelming and the most complicated to understand; a BGG poster calls it the best set, so taste varies.
- What you need first
- Just the base game
Star Realms · Mini expansion
Star Realms: High Alert - Heroes
- What it adds
- Twelve multi-faction Hero cards with a comes-into-play line like United but dual faction symbols.
