Race for the Galaxy · German second edition · (2018)
Your rating:
Sadly the German version doesn't have the expansions and without those it's half the fun. Also: why the big box for that small card game? Rating 8 2026: It's a classic now, isn't it? Other games have copied the action selection and the paying everything with cards thing. (I am looking at you Ares Expedition). I am not very good at this these days but at some point I played the app back to back to back all the time. It can get quite addictive. The actual cardboard version wasn't available in Germany for quite a long time and now that I have the German version, I wish I didn't because not all expansions are available ... in any case: a good game but not one I am in the mood for all the time.
