Reddit take

Not enough linked mention summaries yet; the source excerpts below are the evidence.

Pros

  • Space Base is pretty interactive, similar to Catan in that you get resources when your numbers are rolled, but there's no trading between players.
  • That was far more time than I've ever been willing to give to a game of Catan when I could be playing Lords of Waterdeep or Space Base instead.
  • recently Space Base has been a very popular hit with the family.
  • Games that fit this criteria: Space Base. Already on my list of "to think about".
  • I've been dabbling in some entry level games to get my cousins into them, and Space Base, Courtisans, and Citizens of the Spark have all been "let's play again" games.

Cons

  • Space base was fine but uninspiring for us. Plus, when someone got ahead, they couldn't be caught.

My wife and I really enjoy playing Space Base and finding fun combinations of cards.

Best part about Space Base is that we get some “something” even when it’s someone else’s turn.

Parks, Rome In A Day, Spots, The Quacks Of Quedlinburg, Harmonies, Space Base, Project L, Sea Salt And Paper. All bangers and although you're trying to win, there's a lot of luck/hidden information, so it won't get that competitive.
