That 11 to win is just too brutal imho. That's what caused Doug Herring to lose his playthrough. Basically have to roll a 5 and a 6 on your last roll and not die. The game looks like a lot of fun, maybe house rule that 11 as you can progress on it instead of just all at once being required.
It’s tough for sure but I’ve won once and lost twice. 11 is possible when working with three dice technology. One of my losses I had it too but lost when the mothership dropped and destroyed me. So one win, two losses which included an almost win. Of course this is on easy! 👀 I just need to play it more I guess...
it is more tricky on the intro Roswell game, but gets easier with robots, as you can place a 6 robot on one turn, then you have two rounds just looking for a 5 or a 6, and with two re-rolls the odds are good. Some rooms also give + bonuses, so the reverse of tile A, for example, has a two dice research room with a +3.. so then you're only looking for an 8. This game likes to mix things up for variety. Also, for Roswell, try to give yourself a buffer so you have a couple of cracks at it. Good luck ! R.R.
I haven't received my copy yet, so I can't say for sure that this will work, but maybe consider using a "binder strip" along the sides of the map tiles to hold them together? www.amazon.com/Pieces-Binding-Office-School-Capacity/dp/B07VCK383B/

I should mention that I haven’t watched Ricky’s playthrough yet but just noticed the comment and thought that I’d respond.

Jigsaw map pieces would have been nice. Otherwise, looks good. Thanks.
I agree. It looks annoying to be constantly adjusting the tiles. Pity because it’s a great looking game.
