I don't see much balance in your review. You begin by expressing you will be critical, but only offer positive comments in the entire review, much of which sound like you reading straight from the crowdfunder page. Ok you say it isn't TI4 or Eclipse, that's about it. - - - - - This game may be heavier than Dwellings of Eldervale but essentially it uses the same gaming mechanisms, in terms of how you play your actions, placing workers and recalling them. Meanwhile the flashy graphics make you think this is an immersive sci-fi game, when rather the setting may have nice pictures and you might pay extra for minis, the reality is that this is a solid euro, where the theme of play finds the sci-setting mostly slapped on. Nevertheless I am sure many people will enjoy this game, and its spiritual predecessor Dwellings is a good game. Neither of them however are as epic as their advertising makes out.
Thank for the great comment (We're not being cynical. This actually helps us make better content). We partially agree with your feedback. We're an unsponsored channel and wanted to review the campaign/game without any prejudice. We do think Andromeda's Edge is a good game, but we can agree on that it is merely an upgraded version of Dwellings of Eldervale. Gameplay mechanics are the foundation for every boardgame, but great artwork and high-quality components DO contribute to the overall experience. If we had to choose between Dwellings and Andromeda's Edge, we would definitely go for the latter.
When it's here in 2 years, no one cares any more ;)
