Smash Up: Monster Smash
Smash Up: Monster Smash review
Smash Up: Monster Smash is a fun expansion that adds four new factions to the base game. I've been a fan of Smash Up for a while now, and this expansion is a welcome addition to my collection. The new factions are all unique and interesting, and they add a lot of variety to the gameplay.
The Vampires are a powerful faction that can gain power by destroying other players' minions. The Mad Scientists are a fun deck that allows you to juice up your minions with perks in order to claim victory. The Werewolves are predictably powerful in certain instances, and the Giant Ants work as a great hive mind, spreading their power around as necessary to ensure their atomic-age victory.
The expansion also introduces a new mechanic: power tokens. These tokens can be added, subtracted, and moved around, adding another layer of strategy to the game. I found that the power tokens can make the game a bit more complex, but they also add a lot of depth.
Overall, I would definitely recommend Smash Up: Monster Smash to any fan of the base game. It's a great expansion that adds a lot of new content and replayability. If you're looking for a way to spice up your Smash Up games, this is a great option.
