Know what you get

People love to hate this game because it's not as easy as a normal RPG. Others like to say there is no element of luck, they call it confusing. That's ridiculous. This game has great components, dice and cards, smooth gameplay and uniquely captures the verse theme. I personally find it refreshing that there are so many themes, so many characters that I love from Firefly, that there are so many themes in Let the Luck Go. Most people think this is something wrong. Do yourself a favor and check…

Pros
  • Consistent test results
Cons
  • Will work

Cool game! good for dice games

What can I say? It's a firefly! The game itself is compact (I play solo), incredibly easy to pick up while still having just enough "click luck" to keep it brilliant. I like illustrations on maps, photo frames. Actors and jokes in each mission. The bones are well made and the neoprene playmats (x2), although thin, will probably last me for years. Setup takes less than a minute, with each round played lasting 4 to 5 minutes, making this a really good trip. When playing alone, I have a target of…

Pros
  • High marks for support and durability from testers
Cons
  • Has flaws

Be patient with this game.

It will take a few playthroughs to a few playthroughs to complete this game, but once you've done it there's a good chance you'll become totally hooked. This game is especially fun with a group of 3-4 players as it doesn't take long for everyone to take a turn and the whole game can be completed in around 20 minutes if someone isn't having much luck drawing mission cards . The instructions aren't very well written and can be a bit confusing especially the first time, so be patient because…

Pros
  • Delivery was very fast
Cons
  • Empty

Looked like it would be fun but can't figure out what it is

I read a few reviews before buying this as a Christmas present for my firefly obsessed husband. Some people said that it was difficult to figure out the direction at first, but if you take your time, it's quite a lot of fun. I decided to give it a try as it was claimed to be playable in less than 30 minutes and none of us have the patience for long board games and dice games. While the game elements are of excellent quality and appears fun to play, the instructions leave many questions…

Pros
  • Absolute Legend
Cons
  • Poorly thought out

I think this game has a bad reputation, but personally I thought so.

I think this game has a bad reputation but personally I found it very addictive. Other than that, I only played solitaire as I usually play fireflies with my friends, I play a board game. It took me a few rounds of the game to get really good at timing and when to use a mission. Maps, but it was probably every 30 minutes. After that I really enjoyed playing it and trying to beat my own record. It requires strategy and a lot of luck, and it takes no more than 15 minutes if you're playing solo…

Pros
  • Nice design
Cons
  • No instructions

Shiny Dice is much better than the originally suggested game

After my first try I would give this game a 2.5 star rating. I was very disappointed with that. But since it's so fast (especially in single player) I tried it again and it clicked! This is a game with some imperfections (mainly on the publisher's part), but these imperfections don't require any additional materials to fix, just a little patience until you improve the flow of the game. At the moment I'm enjoying this game a lot and it's a real game of chance. Almost every round I have to decide

Pros
  • Great for me
Cons
  • A bit torn

Witness the exploits of the Firefly team in this fast and furious dice game

Firefly: Shiny Dice is a dice game (I couldn't resist) for 2-5 players, played over three rounds. A typical game for our group lasted less than 30 minutes. The dice are divided into team dice (ten pieces) and enemy dice (five pieces). Each round, the player draws a mission card that affects play and scoring for that round. Players try to defeat the "enemy" dice by playing combinations of "team" dice and using special abilities. At the end of each round, the player decides whether to attempt to…

  • New
