The Verdict

“Other than that, I love the Star Wars deck building game. It's really a lot of fun. I like it because it's quick, I like it because it's engaging, I like it because the theme is awesome and it's tense.”(11:43)
“Such is the level of fun and enjoyment that I experienced in this brand new offering from Fantasy Flight Games. The Star Wars franchise and the world of Deckbuilding come together for a truly wild ride that will please all level of gamers.”
“I'm just in shock. One of my favorite franchises has combined with my favorite board/card game genre for some truly epic gameplay. I had so many reservations and they were all quashed.”
“Well it's definitely a plus and especially if you like to make tournaments or take it as a travel game and with over 100 iconic characters and locations from the Star Wars Universe the force is very strong in this game”
“Number two, two-player game of all time is the Star Wars Deck Building Game. I wish it had a better title, but boy is it a fun game.”
“It's super quick filler here and I don't like Star Wars as much I even I enjoyed the Combos and everything it's just a brilliant game”(11:16)
“Trust, trust the guy that has Yoda ears to tell you that this is a fantastic deck builder for Star Wars fans. You are going to love it. For deck building fans, I think you'll have a lot of fun with this too. It's very quick and pretty, uh, pretty simple to pick up.”(4:26)
“I thought this was fun, fantastic, I loved it. I don't really care about Star Wars, so that should say a lot in favor of this game. If you're a deck building fan like me, this one has some fun flavor and unique mechanics to make it stand out, and I definitely recommend it.”(10:34)
“I would absolutely request to play this one again. I might have to go buy this one despite its production funkiness; theme is knocks it out of the park. I love Star Wars.”(46:06)
“I did really like it, I did really like it, and like I said, I don't like Star Wars, so you know that's saying something. It's solid A, solid A.”
“This would probably rank higher on my list if it wasn't a dueling game because I don't like those head-to-head games as much, but it's pretty sleek Star Wars so I like that a lot.”
“It's a fantastic little two-player card brawler I feel confident in recommending to anyone who likes both card games and Star Wars. It doesn't reinvent the genre, but it's my favorite Star Wars game in years.”
