Firefly Board Game

Product Information

If you want to spend a couple of hours adventuring and don’t want to agonize over tough decisions, this is the game for you. To check your skill, roll a six-sided dice and add your skill points for each person with the appropriate skill symbol. Just like the experience of the Serenity’s crew, the game is full of unpredictability you never know when you’re going to bump into an Alliance patrol or worse, reavers!

As you travel across the board, you draw, and resolve navigation cards which represent events that occur during the journey. With more expansions in the works Firefly is definitely one to watch if you’re looking for a quality space adventure. There are 5 different contacts to get jobs from and they range from legal and low paying to lucrative and highly dangerous (and illegal). They perform functions like preventing the same ad from continuously reappearing, ensuring that ads are properly displayed for advertisers, and in some cases selecting advertisements that are based on your interests.

With an ever expanding board, Firefly the Game is an excellent choice for anyone who has a few spare hours and wants to sit back and immerse themselves in the Firefly universe. Either 1 space for free or up to their ships max movement by spending fuel and drawing cards from the travel decks. Sometimes we may include links to online retailers, from which we might receive a commission if you make a purchase. There are no catch-up mechanisms and all of the varying win conditions (picked at the beginning of the game) are more or less races. But if it did describe you, and you really want to pimp out your game even further, then Big Money is the solution!

I think he’s trying to say there is no challenge if you can bypass everything and skip to the finish line. Jobs and rewards here in Rim Space are a bit lacklustre, compared to the risk of flying here – but this expansion is VITAL due to the new mechanics of having 3 Reavers and their movement being not totally player controller. For those interested, the recently released Pirates and Bounty Hunters expansion is supposed to add in a bit more player interaction. While I may not be able to stop you from completing your job, I can sure has heck try and finish mine first. Well-themed, and cleverly implemented, it places you in the Captain’s seat of your very own Firefly and sends you out into the ‘verse.Almost all of the reviews on Board Game Quest are from review copies of a game provided by the publisher. The Firefly Board Game is based on the popular television series that Joss Whedon created, so it’s probably going to appeal most to people who are already in love with the series. In our group (so far about… probably twelve games or so) Silverhold is the least visited place in the ‘Verse, and when it is visited repeatedly it’s generally by the loser… With one very memorable exception which requires too many in-jokes to explain.

The game comes with a number of molded plastic Firefly ships, an alliance cruiser, and a reaver ship. Oh, and every single time you move to reach these planets you have to draw a card to see if some event happens.Firefly feels like a race to earn the big bucks and as the end game nears, you’ll get an idea of who’s in the lead. The end game goals can vary from getting a certain sum of money or completing a big ‘misbehaving’ mission. To begin, you and the other players in your group will choose one of the 6 mission cards that they want to tackle. The rise of board game cafes has opened up an immense archive of fun strategy themed board games to play while out with your friends.
