Nonetheless, there is a learning curve and you can easily see it using the online app. Be sure it is not only a matter of luck (there’s luck, of course) but also the ability to chose wisely between cards depending on your deck and your opponent’s. Compared with Dominion that I love, I’d say it’s not comparable: if you go for action and tension, play Star Realms. On the other hand, prefer Dominion if you’re looking for control and equity between players.

Overall, I’m curious to know what you would think about Shards of Infinity 😉

Yes, that’s right- $29 for a box. And before you say anything else, after that add-on announcement it became their second-best day of funding. KS culture…

They’re also changing the score card to be less cumbersome. But honestly, why not just use a health meter app on your phone?
