My BGG Comment

The teach alone takes more than an hour. Have yet to play this multiplayer. Despite the complexity and huge number of systems, I have good rule retention on this one I understood the rules. Solo mode is good though the bot sometimes just fails at traveling between planet and orbit when he should thus making the game much easier. Hesitant to try this with most people as the split between orbit and planet for the worker spots and the balancing between the two is hard to get across without trying it out and failing.
