The Captain Is Dead: Dangerous Planet
60m - 90m
2 - 5 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
Play occurs upon a modular board that is composed of multiple pieces, often tiles or cards. In many games, board placement is randomized, leading to different possibilities for strategy and exploration.Some games in this category have multiple boards which are not used simultaneously, preserving table space. Unused boards remain out of play until they are required.
Modular Board
Variable Player Powers is a mechanic that grants different abilities and/or paths to victory to the players.

Very different from the other two games. It feels quite a bit like Aliens. By constructing the tunnels in different ways the difficulty of the game is adjustable, that is a very good improvement from the other two games, but at the same time the rulebook does not give you enough information about it so you need to experience for yourself how to build the tunnels adequately. Overall we enjoyed so far the best of the three. BREMEN

Fully cooperative game that seems to be like a Tower Defense version of The Captain Is Dead. [b]Similar games:[/b] * The Captain Is Dead (prequel, coop) * Pandemic (thinky cooperative game with hand management, different roles, movement, and area control) * Alien Uprising (tower defense-like cooperative gameplay with dice action selection)

As much fun as the other two Captain is Dead games can be, this one while maintaining that fresh take on a similar concept just hasn't captured the lightning in a bottle fun that the prior two games did for our group and even for myself. I appreciate that we can lay out the planet to our own desires, but with a slightly different focus and a greater orientation on combat, it feels more like a knock-off of the "Forbidden" series (Island/Desert/Sky) with a Captain is Dead theme.
