Looney Labs Star Trek Chrono-Trek Card Game – Star Trek Game with Multi-Series Time-Travel Adventure

My family loves it even those of us who—gasp—aren’t Trekies!

I adore Looney Labs "Chrononauts" and at first glance thought this to be more or less a skin. As a die hard Star Trek fan, that was still more than enough for me to pick it up. When I read the rules, read the cards, and began to play I found it was so much more. While it retains some core mechanics of Chrononauts there are enough new mechanics, twists, and unique features which make it feel like a fresh experience even for someone who has played Chrononauts for many many years. Every inch of the game demonstrates a deep deep love of Star Trek lore and canon. So many little things had me grinning me grinning and yet my girlfriend who only has a general familiarity with the franchise still loved it. With just two people, the game moves pretty quick to start off so I'd recommend folks more familiar with the mechanics still to the more difficult ID or even make a house rule to needing to win 2 of them.

Star trak fans will love. One none trekkie stopped playing. The rest really enjoyed

We love Star Trek in this house and not only was the gameplay enjoyable but we spent a lot of time just studying the timeline. We have original Chrononauts and Back to the Future Chrononauts but this one was the most detailed and most complicated. It's a standalone game so you don't need to have played the original to play this one. Very fun game that will make it to the table a lot in our house!

Started a game as the Dominion, with one of my three goals being to break the timeline and ensure that the Federation was subsumed by the Dominion at Deep Space Nine. Instead, I ended up winning the game as Q, because Picard failed to understand the paradox at the heart of the Devron Anomaly from the finale of TNG. 10 out of freaking 10.

Fun twist on the Chrononauts game. Do recommend playing with 4 players or so, 2 player games can be quite short and the more players involved makes some of the strategy calls more interesting.

I have enjoyed this game, however, I am a big Star Trek fan and when I played it with others the appeal was lessened by their lack of familiarity with the Star Trek universe. In addition, it seems like this game does not have as much variation in gameplay as does a game like Fluxx. It is a solid and fine filler game, but does not have much depth to it.

This was a gift from the recipient's Wish List, so it was just what she wanted. I don't know whether this game has been played yet, but I expect it will be enjoyed.
