Firefly Board Game

Product Information

Sure, occasionally you might get lucky and be able to steal away a good crew member from another player, but those will be rare occasions.

The Game Booster adds 40 new cards to the Misbehave Deck, presenting more hassles, hardships and the rare opportunity to those crews that might indulge in a bit of criminal behavior now and then. You’ll not often bump into each other when playing and even if you do, there’s not much you can do to actually affect each other’s gameplay. Firefly, the popular Fox television series created by Joss Whedon, comes to life in a new boardgame from Gale Force Nine. Additionally, it’s worth noting that the nature of the game means that you’re unlikely to finish a session quickly.Sometimes we may include links to online retailers, from which we might receive a commission if you make a purchase. The game is incredibly thematic (nominated for our 2013 Thematic game award), easy to learn, and a must play for any fan of the show. Published by Gale Force Nine, the Firefly: The Game quickly sold out at its Gen Con premiere in 2013. If you want, you can thumb your nose at the crew member and not give them their cut, which will cause them to become disgruntled. The better crew will cost more (and require a bigger cut of jobs), but will be much more handy to have along.

So to answer the first question one has when confronted with a licensed product: does it stay true to source material? So in theory, no matter how bad of a crew you have, there is some chance that you can succeed at any given skill check. Additionally, as you travel further into the game, you’ll also risk encountering Reavers, which present an entirely different kind of danger.The illegal jobs always give better payouts but can be harder to pull off because you will need to ‘misbehave’ to complete them.
