In The Beginning, you are able to match your carnivores to meet other defensive traits much easier. In the original it was so hard to turn carnivore and still make a dent because of all the defensive cards. I actually think I like this version more than the original for this simple reason….carnivores are more manageable. I was hoping Evolution: The Beginning would help her like the game more….not sure it did, but at a cheap price I will be keeping it. I LOVE the original Evolution! My wife didn’t….so I let it go. Evolution: The Beginning by North Star Games I don’t mind long games but for some reason this really bothers me in this game. Every time I think about how good it was I remember how long it was and my desire to play falls.
It is really too long and I wish that it wasn’t. The reason it is not higher on my list is the length. I love the cat and mouse feel and the tension is high through out and decisions are tough. I really love the game play and the different sides path to victory. I have played all the main Star Wars games including Armada, X-Wing, Imperial Assault….I think if you really want to play Star Wars, this and Imperial Assault are the two best.

With that being said….here are my Top Ten Games of 2016. If I did, Cry Havoc would have made the list and Mystic Vale would have come close. I did not put games that I played demos of at conventions because I don’t think I got a good enough taste for the game in only one round of playing. So, this list is my favorite games that came out in 2016 that I have played, which was around 50 games. I still haven’t received all my games from Kickstarter but I will not wait any longer.
I waited a couple more weeks to fill out this list because I was still waiting on a couple games that I backed on Kickstarter to see if they would make the list.
