Among the Stars: Revival review

Among the Stars: Revival is a fantastic expansion for the base game, adding new depth and strategy. The addition of new locations, spaceships, and advisors creates a more competitive and engaging experience. I particularly enjoyed the new two-player rules, which provide a quick and engaging alternative for those with a smaller group. I found the new mechanics to be well-designed and seamlessly integrate with the base game. The new spaceship tokens add a unique and interactive element, forcing players to consider their placement strategically.

However, I did find the card text to be a bit small, making it difficult to read at times. A card holder or magnifying glass might be a worthwhile investment for those with vision issues. While the inclusion of the advisors is a welcome addition, it might be helpful for newer players to familiarize themselves with the base game's mechanics before jumping into this expansion.

Overall, Among the Stars: Revival is a fantastic addition to the game, offering new challenges and opportunities for strategic gameplay. While the card text size might be a minor inconvenience, the new elements introduced are well-designed and engaging. I highly recommend this expansion for fans of the base game.
