Cosmic Encounter Duel
30m
2 - 2 Players
Ages 14+
Hand management games are games with cards in them that reward players for playing the cards in certain sequences or groups. The optimal sequence/grouping may vary, depending on board position, cards held and cards played by opponents. Managing your hand means gaining the most value out of available cards under given circumstances. Cards often have multiple uses in the game, further obfuscating an "optimal" sequence.
Hand Management
The simultaneous action selection mechanic lets players secretly choose their actions. After they are revealed, the actions resolve following the rule-set of the game.
Simultaneous Action Selection
Maneuvers that directly attack an opposing player's strength, level, life points or do something else to impede their progress.
Take That
Variable Player Powers is a mechanic that grants different abilities and/or paths to victory to the players.

A massive let down with my Dad and I - we both love the core game and this just did not deliver on chaos or competitive strategy.

It feels like a fairly faithful recreation of Cosmic Encounter for 2 players, with plenty of wacky hijinks to go around. It’s the only version of Cosmic that I got to experience with Dad, and I was certainly happy that we at least got to do this.

This game does a great job of making the 2 player game feel similar to the large game and it takes out the "having a good crowd" to make the game play great. There is some strategy to be played, but there is also a bunch of random things and chaos happening as well. That being said, this randomness will flip the tide of the game. This game is allot of fun but hard to actually have plan be carried out.
