Questions and answers
The catalogue lists BLASTER: Games Anthology 03 for ages 14 and up. This is the publisher’s recommendation and reflects reading demands, rule complexity and small components rather than theme alone. Younger players can often join with help from an adult, so check the age guidance on your edition and consider your group’s experience with board games.
BLASTER: Games Anthology 03 belongs to these categories: Print & Play, Miniatures, and Expansion for Base-game. Its main mechanics are Variable Player Powers, Push Your Luck, and Area Movement. Categories describe the theme and setting of a game, while mechanics describe what players actually do on their turns. Each mechanic links to a catalogue hub with similar games, which helps when you want something comparable.
The credited designers of BLASTER: Games Anthology 03 are: Mike Hutchinson, Joseph McCullough, Joseph McGuire, Sean Sutter, and Ash Barker. These credits come from the published game data and name the people responsible for the game’s design, not its illustrators or publishers. Designer pages on MeepleRules collect other titles by the same designers, which helps when you enjoy a game and want to find similar ones.
The catalogue lists BLASTER: Games Anthology 03 as an expansion for Frostgrave. Expansions add new content, rules or scenarios to the base game and usually cannot be played on their own, so you need Frostgrave to use it. Check that your edition of Frostgrave is compatible, as some expansions were revised between editions.
