Firefly Board Game

Product Information

Firefly: The Game isn’t the first board game based on a TV show we’ve reviewed here on Board Game Quest. A while ago we took a look at the Battlestar Galactica board game (spoiler alert: it’s phenomenal) and were able to state that you don’t have to be a fan of the show to love the board game. Does Firefly fall into the same mold? I’d say yes, but not as strongly. So maybe that was just a coincidence. We get together another time and play one of the other box scenarios. And I learn how to break the game and win every time. Do you want to know how to do it? Seriously, in the next couple sentences I will spoil the game for you, and give you the secret to winning. Are you sure you want to know? Yes? Yes? SPOILER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! While choosing high-paying but illegal jobs might get you the money you need faster, you’ll need to be careful. The more illegal jobs you take, the more immoral you become. Sometimes, crew members can also be disgruntled by immoral jobs. Some disgruntled crew members may eventually leave your crew entirely, making it much harder for you to win.

But on the same token, Firefly: The Game is far from a cheap, licensed tie in. While, yes, the Firefly license defiantly helps sell this game, overall Firefly is a well-designed game that’s also a lot of fun. And for me, that’s a sigh of relief. Nothing is worse than getting a game based on a subject matter you enjoy and finding out it’s nothing but a shallow box of cards with no game play to speak of ( World War Z I’m looking at you). Firefly boasts a range of expansions to add even more to your game. The great thing about this game is that the expansions can be added depending on what you want to add to your game. ‘Curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal!’– Hoban ‘Wash’ WashbourneHauling things around the universe makes sense in the game too. As you play, each player will take on the role of captain of their ship, hiring crew, equipping them with tools, and making decisions about which contracts to take, and which to abandon. Just played this for the first time and it was fun. I had gotten it as a gift. The group of us that played it was not familiar with Firefly though, which made some confusions.

Makes them all stronger, not really a huge priority on getting this. However, that doesn’t mean that there isn’t fun to be had if you haven’t watched the series. The variety of different gameplay options available and the unique storytelling aspect of the title make it a compelling choice for any game night.

Hey everyone, reading your comments it seems to me like the makers of this game need to do some tweeking. Kind of like what the 2nd edition of War Of The Ring is to the 1st edition. Where in my opinion the first edition it was easier to win as the free people where as the 2nd edition made it more even. The end game goals can vary from getting a certain sum of money or completing a big ‘misbehaving’ mission. This offers a nice variety dependent on your of your group’s preferred playstyle. Firefly boasts a range of expansions to add even more to your game. The great thing about this game is that the expansions can be added depending on what you want to add to your game. ‘Curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal!’ – Hoban ‘Wash’ Washbourne With more expansions in the works Firefly is definitely one to watch if you’re looking for a quality space adventure. (Tom Randell, www.gamesquest.co.uk/blog) Buy your copy here. Over a decade ago, a little known TV show premiered on the FOX network called Firefly. As any fan of the show (Browncoats as they are known) can attest to, this sci-fi/western TV show was completely mismanaged by the network until it was canceled halfway through its first season. To say the show has gone on to become a cult hit would be a gross understatement. Firefly has spawned a loyal following of Browncoats that any TV show on the air now would be drooling to have.

There are other smaller expansions available, from individual ships to even more cards to keep the game fresh. Final Thoughts

Oh, and every single time you move to reach these planets you have to draw a card to see if some event happens. This can be avoided by “moseying” only one space on your turn, but if you did that all the time someone else would win the game before you completed your first job. Over half of these event cards say that nothing happens. So much time in this game is spent moving a space, pulling a card that says “continue”, moving another space, another uneventful card, another space, another card, etc etc etc. Riveting. The cards that do have events on them are only slightly less variable than the misbehavin’ cards. Failed Concept Or do you want to explore the WHOLE ‘Verse? Then you’ll love the ‘Blue Sun’ and ‘Kalidasa’ expansions which extends the board on both ends and adds a heap more content from ‘Serenity’ including new missions and new items to add to your shops. Fair warning – if you’re struggling to fit the base game on your table, you might need to buy a bigger table before you buy these board expansions!
