Space Cadets: Dice Duel + Die Fighter Review: I Think You Need More Friends

Read more...

Great review! One piece of advice for future players: try and play this at the end of the night, because the captains are going to lose their voices from shouting at their crewmembers. I was barely able to speak the next day after yelling for for an hour and a half.

Love this game with a full crew, less than that it can be a little underwhelming. When the captains are yelling, the navigator is moving you in the wrong direction, and torpedo guy yells fire without a target in sight, the game just rocks.

Die Fighter is also a fantastic expansion. The fighters feel as they should and really provide a satisfying alternative to the multi-crewed capital ships. We played like 6 or 7 games in a row with the fighters at a full compliment of 10 players in preparation for my review and while we were all emotionally depleted afterwards, it was a great time.
