About the game
Get ready for another space adventure with ROVE: Expansion Collection! This gem brings three brand-new mission packs for your base ROVE game: Icy Incidents, Alien Activities, and Cosmic Crisis. Each pack adds six cards to supercharge your explorations. The gameplay remains the same as the original game: follow the standard setup, but before you start playing, give the cards from these new packs a good shuffle along with the mission and movement cards from the base game. This way, your starting hand will already have a taste of what awaits you! It's the perfect addition for those who already enjoy ROVE and want more challenges and scenarios for their solo space explorer. With a quick playtime of about 15 minutes and light complexity, it's ideal for fitting into any part of your day. The new missions promise to maintain the level of pattern recognition and grid movement that fans enjoy, all in a super portable package with very little text on the cards, making immersion easier. If you're looking to extend the lifespan of your ROVE with new and interesting content, this collection is a find!
