What's your fastest game?

Post by WillCarps4 »

Just played a game where I won in 10 rounds - 20 turns total (2 player, lightspeed) and got me wondering whether anyone's won faster than that? I got extremely lucky: after getting 8 rockets on 6, rolled double 6 twice.

Obviously with more players the games end quicker but still interested :D

10 turns would be insanely fast. Your game was 20 turns, 10 rounds. Generally a light speed game takes about 40 turns regardless of the number of players, so it's definitely fast. I think my fastest games have been 24 turns.

Good spot, have corrected! Interesting, didn't know that (total turn number is roughly constant regardless of player count) 🙂 is that just from experience or can you see those stats somewhere?

That's based on experience. I don't think those stats are available to hoi polloi, and certainly not broken out by number of players.

3 turns 😄 Some player quit after I won the rights to buy the 3x 🪙 3x income card (Lightspeed) and I immediately rolled a 7 the following turn does that count lol

Best I could find was 13 rounds, 25 turns. I bought the "You Win" Card on the first round, then saved up for the "Place 1 charge anywhere, then move 1 charge anywhere" card. Then proceeded to hit the Charge Card 3 times, placing and moving 5 charges to the "You Win" Card.

edit: Just beat it. 12 rounds 23 turns. Bought the Sector 9 "Switch places" card on the first round, then saved up for the "You Win" Card. Moved cards around until the "You Win" card was on Sector 6, then proceeded to roll a 5 6s on my next 5 turns.

My best game was winning in eight rounds. It's been years ago, so finding a game link for it would be quite a challenge. : (

11 rounds.

Got the 7 arrow on the flop (Lightspeed Variant).
Just after my 4th roll (roll 7, total), I bought the Sector 8 place-a-charge/move-a-charge card.
Two rolls later, bought the You Win card.
Three of my next seven rolls were 7s, and between that and the combination of other charges I had stored on the board...
