## Description
Ever felt like you've completely mastered Star Realms and the matches are starting to feel a bit repetitive? That's where Star Realms: Scenarios comes in. This isn't a standalone game, but rather an essential supplement for those who want to add a fresh twist to their galactic battles. The kit features twenty scenario cards that act as 'match modifiers'.

The process is incredibly straightforward and doesn't disrupt the game flow: before you start building your decks, you shuffle the scenario cards and reveal one. This card dictates the rules for that specific session. Some might tweak basic rules you're already familiar with, while others introduce entirely new mechanics that force you and your opponents to rethink your card-buying and attacking strategies.

Imagine that instead of just trying to deplete your opponent's health, you now have a different objective or a restriction that changes your deck's priority. This transforms the game into a dynamic experience where every match requires quick adaptation. It's the perfect tool for players who love variety and want to test their deck's versatility under pressure. If you already love the base game, these scenarios are like 'mini-games' that breathe new life into your Star Realms, ensuring that no two matches are ever the same. It's the extra dose of chaos and strategy needed to push players out of their comfort zone and make the space dispute even more unpredictable and exciting.

## FAQ
### Can I play this standalone?
No, this is a supplement. You absolutely need the Star Realms base game to use these scenarios.

### Is it hard to learn?
Not at all! If you already know how to play Star Realms, just read the scenario card at the start of the game and follow the new rule. It's very intuitive.

### How many people can play?
The player count follows the base game rules, supporting 2 to 4 space combatants.

### Does the game take longer with scenarios?
It depends on the scenario, but generally, the playtime remains similar since most alter the dynamics rather than the game's duration.

### Is it worth it for a beginner?
I recommend mastering the base game first. Once you're comfortable with the deck-building mechanics, these scenarios will be the icing on the cake.
