Robo Rally: 30th Anniversary · English edition · (2024)
Your rating:
We've enjoyed our play with this new edition quite a bit. The Box has the same bottom foot-print as my older Avalon Hill Edition and also fits my old boards easily. The rules changes went over well with my group: everyone having their own deck and turn-order being determined not by card priority (which doesn't exist anymore) but just by going clockwise from the start player. The chaos is still plenty present. The minis and new player boards are fine. The rulebook includes a list of variants that seem to include all the possible rules I've encountered for this game over the years and allow each group to tweak the game to their preference. I fit all the old cards and minis into this box as well plus all the expansions that came out from Renegade. Overall the game has lost nothing of its allure over the decades. (My first plays of this were in the late 90s I think.)
