About the game
Two cosmic adventurers are in a tricky scenario and must work together. By rolling and manipulating dice for special abilities and combos, you can be the one that guides them to victory. The Twin Stars solo system was created by Jason Tagmire and Mike Mullins. A single session uses just 3 cards and players provide their own dice and coins/tokens. Scenarios and characters can be interchanged with others for a very different gaming experience. Twin Stars: Adventure Series I, released in 2017, was a collection of previously-released scenarios. Twin Stars: Adventure Series II contains completely new and original material, but once again consists of 6 Twin Stars scenarios and 12 characters. While by itself, this would make for 396 unique combinations, the game integrates seamlessly with the characters and scenarios from the first collection, yielding a total of 3,312 unique games -- or to put it another way, tremendous solo replayability. —description from the publisher Scenarios: 07: Master the Trials 08: Beat the Odds 09: Control the Skies 10: Sell the Junk 11: Destroy the Order 12: Serve the Rabble

Twin Stars: Adventure Series II has a complexity rating of 2.5 out of 5 from BoardGameGeek players, which makes it a medium-light game.
