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 difficulty is I’m on Planet Isolation and don’t have any other crew members, so I went through my boardgame stash looking for a one-player game, and there like a shining beacon is Firefly. If you hire Saffron, for example, and then someone else hires Yolanda afterward, you have to remove Saffron from the game. This is where the heart of the game resides, usually being an afterthought for the early part of the game but serving as a ticking clock as soon as it becomes clear one player is moving toward the first of the main objectives. You need a giant table (LOTS of card piles / the board / ship etc), not much interaction between players.

Il peut plaire aussi bien aux fans (Firefly + film Serenity) qu'aux personnes voulant découvrir un univers sympa et original créé par le papa de Buffy ou Avengers au cinéma (Joss Whedon), un "western spacial", avec une pointe d'humour.Most of the lucrative jobs will require a player to pass a series of skill checks or risk drawing the attention of the Alliance and getting a “wanted” token.

Each of the captain cards has their own unique abilities which will help you tailor your game strategy. A rival player can also hire out a disgruntled crew member from under you if they are in the same sector.

My aim is to focus on reviewing board games and how they play for two people and, on occasion, how they play for one person.

Some jobs are legal transports and are great to begin with, but they pay less, and as you take on more crew and have to give them a cut of every job, you’ll want to move on to the jobs that are a bit more dodgy but pay much better.
