Star Realms is a card-based deck building science-fiction tabletop game, designed by Rob Dougherty and Darwin Kastle and published in 2014 by Wise Wizard Games. The game started out as a Kickstarter campaign in 2013. The goal of Star Realms is to destroy your opponent or opponents by purchasing cards using "trade" points and using these cards to attack your opponent's "authority" using your "combat" points. The game takes place in a distant future where different races compete to gain resources, trade and outmaneuver each other in a race to become ruler of the galaxy.
Star Realms is similar to other deck building games, like Ascension and Dominion.

I decided to take a break from Magic Arena because after a while I realized I wasn't having fun. What better way to quit a card game than to pick up another card game? Star Realms is great and a fun way to spend some time. Just playing against the AI is a good time.

Decided to buy the full version and an expansion. So far just playing against the computer and I noticed a few things. The luck factor is super high. It comes down to what's in the trade row often. Sometimes there are just bases or really expensive things, which makes it tough. In that case I buy explorers and hope for something coming in when the computer takes a card.
An ideal start for me would be some scrapping ships, buy a few explorers, load up on blobs then hope to draw many cards per turn.

As I was falling asleep on the couch I noticed on the deck boxes of actual cards the game is available on Steam (among other platforms). I promptly downloaded it the next day and have already logged 4 hours. Very fun game despite the huge luck factor. Go Darwin Kastle and Robert Dougherty!
