Star Trek Fluxx: Bridge Expansion – 2-6 Players – Card Games for Family – 5-30 Mins of Gameplay – Games for Family Game Night – Card Games for Kids & Adults Ages 8+ - English

1) I'M A STAR TREK AND A FLUXX FAN--->you need this TLDR; Just save yourself time and get all 3: Star Trek Fluxx, Star Trek The Next Generation Fluxx, and the Bridge Expansion pack. WHAT'S THE SAME? If you're a gamer, you are probably familiar with at least one incarnation of Fluxx. The Fluxx this is closest to in card composition and game mechanics is Star Fluxx, the non-copyright-infringement parody of beloved sci-fi icons. But now Looney Labs has pulled off the seemingly impossible, they've gotten the rights to publish Star Trek Fluxx, and has released separate decks for TOS and TNG. They have Creepers, Keepers with special powers, and a few nifty new Trek-specific Actions and New Rules. No significant surprises in the game mechanics here, just good ole Fluxx fun but now with added Star Trek! WHAT'S UNIQUE? Although Fluxx decks all have the same card backs and some fans can and do combine different decks, Andrew Looney and Looney Labs have never previously supported this practice because it alters gameplay making the game much longer and harder to win. While Fluxx is usually a delightfully quick intermezzo for me, fans are aware that sometimes a game can drag on. So I was trepidatious and not a little skeptical about the fact that there is a Bridge Pack expansion designed to allow you to shuffle the Star Trek and Star Trek TNG Fluxx decks together. My hypothesis before attempting this feat was that I would not enjoy the combined decks and that the game would drag on interminably. But wonder of wonders, it actually works! Not only does it NOT significantly increase the average length of game, but also I find it is even MORE ENJOYABLE to combine the decks than to play them separately!?! I think this is because the Bridge Expansion facilitates nerdy juxtapositions between the two starship crews in a way that I find highly entertaining. Andy Looney is a genius, there is no other explanation :-) 2) I'M A STAR TREK FAN BUT NOT A GAMER-->you might need this You will likely still enjoy the original artwork and may discover a fun, usually quick card game that changes it's own rules as you play. I'd suggest getting only one of the two Fluxxes, either Star Trek or Star Trek TNG, whichever is your favorite of those two shows. (You can always go back for more later!) 3) I'M A FLUXX FAN BUT NOT A STAR TREK FAN-->this is not for you It's okay, I don't judge ;) This is probably not the game for you. Perhaps you should try to find a copy of Star Wars Fluxx in Russian. 4) I'M NOT A FLUXX FAN OR A STAR TREK FAN-->Heavens to Mergatroyd, why are you even stopping in to read this? Move along, find something you love to play and enjoy, and we'll do the same, thereby all helping to make the world a kinder, hippie, tie-dye, peaceful place...live long and prosper! ***Same review posted for all 3 Star Trek Fluxxes

I got these to go with my Star Trek Fluxx Game.

You'd think "Star Trek Fluxx: Bridge Expansion" would be for "Star Trek Fluxx" (title of the TOS version of the game,) particularly as it says "Enhance Your Star Trek Fluxx Game," but it's not. It's for "Star Trek The Next Generation Fluxx," which isn't available anywhere, and is locked (uselessly,) in Looney Labs' "vault." Beyond that, it's an unusable waste of money.

This expansion pack honestly does 'bridge' the two games together for increased fun and play time. One can only wonder how it will add to the DS9 Fluxx coming in 2019.

Really ties the TOS and TNG Fluxx decks together. Some of the best Fluxx we've ever played. In my group we have 8-10 different decks.

Kinda small, but worth the price.

I was gifted this expansion along with the TOS Star Trek Fluxx base game, but we unfortunately didn't realize the TNG Star Trek Fluxx base game was also needed to use the expansion! Our first game we ended up using all the cards once through and were scratching our heads like wait .. we never saw any TNG characters outside of goals. The cards themselves are nice- 12 new cards: 10 goals, 1 meta rules, 1 keeper. The game was playable with the expansion cards included, however 8 of the goals were unwinnable since we didn't have any TNG keepers. We didn't notice until the end to be honest, since goals are constantly replaced or discarded anyway. The meta rules card, the bridge keeper, and both bridge goals can be used without the TNG base game so I guess I'll keep it anyway and just use those. Probably would be a good expansion if you have both base games! Overall a nice expansion if you own both base games, less impressive if you only own TOS. It does say this is to be used with both base games in the description but unfortunately we missed that.

Maybe I missed it but it didn't clarify on the buying page that this is to be used when combining ST Original Series Fluxx deck and TNG! So imagine when my husband opened it for his birthday and it was to use with a game we didn't have. :(. Also, the price for that teeny tiny pack of cards seemed life too much. Seller was fine.
