About the game
What you do in a play session
Get ready to supercharge your space exploration with ROVE: Reconfigured! This expansion introduces 2.0 modules that give your resources a boost, offering enhanced effects to help you brave the unknown. Think of them as an upgrade to your survival operating system. The core gameplay remains similar to the original ROVE: you choose one module of each type (Brain, Coil, Gripper, Laser, Motor, Sensor) and decide whether to use the classic or the souped-up 2.0 version. This choice will shape your strategy and how you tackle the challenges that arise. It's a small expansion, with only 6 cards, but it significantly alters the game's dynamics, adding more complexity and tactical options. Perfect for those who already enjoy ROVE and want more replayability and different challenges. The question is: are these new 'bigger' modules always better? You'll have to play to find out! It's the extra dose of adrenaline your solo ROVE needed, while maintaining the practicality and charm of Button Shy's microgames.
