Spaceteam: A Fast-paced, Cooperative, Shouting Card Game

This game is real fun! Cooperation and teamwork are keys for this board game...if you like hectic rounds and fast-pace decisions making this is the game for you! Ps: The parcel came from the US o it took a while to be delivered

What a fun game! I suggest watching the video for easier instructions on how to play. This game was a blast! This game may be hard for younger children learning to read especially as some of the tool names are made up words and not easily recognisable but that is the only downfall of this game. Super fun for family and friends to play. We bought this as a Christmas present and played several rounds on Christmas day! Cant wait to get a group together again to play it.

This game is great fun! We tried watching the video online to lean how to play, but found having a go with cards up on the table and no timer the best way to get going. Either way instructions are simple and clear. Everyone enjoyed the game, some people were initially less interested because of the long sciencey words, but once you get into it all of the fun is in trying to describe what you need. I would strongly recommend getting this game for any group of 4 or more. It's customisable so you can edit the difficulty. (Different timer lengths, different deck set ups) we had a good mix of easy and difficult frantic games. (We played with all adults). It can get very loud, has excellent replay factor and the short learning time and quick play time makes it a perfect game to take along on Christmas day or pull out on an evening in.

I'm a game nerd, raised on the old Avalon Hill bookcase games and tactical miniatures games by Games Workshop, and I still love all manner of board games today. 'Spaceteam' was worth a quick review because this game checks off a lot of boxes. Games of 'Spaceteam' are short but frenetic, making it a great go-to for impromptu pick-up games or for game nights when things wrap up earlier than expected. 'Spaceteam' scales well with its advertised 3-6 players (or even more if you use the expansions, although we thought that 4-6 players is the game's 'sweet spot'). Its cooperative play— which puts emphasis on social interaction— and its pace and hilarity make 'Spaceteam' suitable for use as a 'party game' at small gatherings, even among players who aren't really serious board gamers. 'Spaceteam' is a relatively simple game, and while it's described as suitable for ages 12 and up, I think that a lot of kids below that age could pick up on the rules pretty easily. At its current pricing, 'Spaceteam' has a cheap buy-in and offers a good value. It won't require a huge investment to add this title to your collection-- and it won't take up a lot of space on your shelf, either, which is always a concern at my casa. There are a couple of minor criticisms, too. First of all, people who have difficulty processing fast-paced events happening more or less simultaneously may feel overwhelmed by 'Spaceteam.' You're liable to shout a lot while playing 'Spaceteam,' so this might not be the game to play while baby is napping. Players need to be able to pass cards to each other or move freely around the table, so 'Spaceteam' might not be the best game to play in a tight breakfast nook or when seated in a booth. Three or four players facing each other across an absurdly long dining table might be in for a cardio workout. 'Spaceteam' isn't a good game to play while multitasking. I'd plan on turning the TV off and putting the phone away (and not being rude to your friends LOL). On a note completely unrelated to this review of the base set, we own both of the expansions for 'Spaceteam' and they're both great-- and I especially liked that both expansions fit within the box for the basic set. This one's a no-brainer. If you're reading this and thinking about buying 'Spaceteam,' go ahead and pull the trigger!

There are many reviews for this game already, so I want to concentrate on a few tips based on our experience of giving the gift as a Christmas present and then playing it with friends multiple times. FIRST: There's a suggestion that all you need to do is watch a short video to learn the rules. The video is fun and we recommend watching it, but the production values were more important than simply explanatory information in this case. We watched the video twice and it didn't equip us to play. So, we did actually have to read the rules. Good news is that the rules are short. This is a quick game to learn. You just won't be able to pick it up from the video alone. SECOND: We found you really need to play this game around a table where people are in close proximity. We actually started playing at a table that was too long and the rapid communications and handing off of cards wasn't easy. So, find a table where you're sitting close around the playing surface. THIRD: You'll need to play the game a couple of times to really get the strategy. But that's OK. It's fun and quick. Just expect that you won't get it quite right the first time or two. FINALLY: If you're ordering the game for yourself or a give, we would recommend you go ahead and add on the expansion pack. You'll likely find yourselves playing the game over and over again—since it's quick and fun—and you'll want the extra cards that come with https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B075JR7VBM/
