Pandasaurus Games Faraway Card Game - Explore Mysterious Alula! Strategic Region Building with Engaging Gameplay for Adventurers, Ages 10+, 2-6 Players, 15-30 Min Playtime

So, it takes a little bit to get your head wrapped around the reverse scoring and filling the requirements of the cards played after you play them not before.I really, really, really love this game at 2 players! It plays super fast; once you both know how to play, you can get a game done in 10-15 minutes. I like that it can play up to 6, but haven't got a chance to try it with that many yet.The artwork is cute and quirky. There is some luck involved for sure, but there is a good depth in the strategy of card selection. It's a nice small form factor, so nice for a quick grab 'n go game night. It is quickly becoming one of my favorite games!

You can look online for an explanation of how to play - it is fairly straightforward once you watch the video but I highly recommend watching the video as the written instructions are not as easy to understand. Otherwise it is a fairly quick game with a decent amount of luck and strategy such that good ideas/strategy help but sometimes you will find it impossible to overcome luck. This it is a good game for a mix of players (really good strategy players to more casual players) because the luck factor helps to level the playing field enough to make it fun for everyone.

Most who have played this agree that it is something of a revolution. Play your card left to right BUT score then right to left. HUH?! So counterintuitive but AMAZING! Many top ten game lists have this at the top. So easy to learn, fast to the table, and quick enough to play several games in under 30 minutes. This will quickly become your go-to game. Amazingly, this is as much fun playing solo (same rules as multiplayer) as it is playing at all player counts. Give this one a try, you will be glad that you did.

Great game with a lot of strategy- both offensively and defensively. If you like games like Catan and Azul, you’ll love this! Plus, it’s compact for travel and is just as much fun to play with only two people as it is with more (up to 6).

Great game. Top rated by many gamers. Very difficult to get your head around the reverse scoring system but once you get it you will know what to do but its still not easy to get a lot of points until you play many games and understand the strategies. You definitely need to watch some videos on Youtube about this first.

You can read in-depth reviews for the game anywhere else. I'll just say it's a very fun game that lasts about 20-30 min (depending on number of players). Always happy to play it as a quick filler game.The great gimmick is that you only get to pick and play one card each round, in order in front of you, but at the end of the game you score them in reverse. How much a card scores depends on other cards you've already scored, so there's a degree of planning and praying that everything will work out 🙏🏼

A fun tile laying game! We have only played at 2 players but it’s definitely unique in its scoring compared to any other game we own. I recommend checking out a video on YouTube to be sure you’d like it but if you’re playing with 2 players I can definitely recommend.

We really enjoy this game! It’s good for just two people to play or more people as well. It was pretty easy to learn. The more you play it the better you can strategize which cards to select and play. The theme of this game is unique, and the materials are of good quality. It’s a small box and simple game to set up, which is nice. Would recommend!
