Product Info:- Enter the futuristic universe of Red Rising, based on the exciting book series by Pierce Brown featuring a dystopian society divided into fourteen castes.
- You represent a house attempting to rise to power as you piece together an assortment of followers (represented by your hand of cards). Will you break the chains of the Society or embrace the dominance of the Golds?
- Start with a hand of 5 cards, and on your turn, deploy 1 of those cards to a location on the board, activating that card's deploy benefit. Gain the top card from another location or the deck, gaining that location's benefit and adding the card to your hand as you enhance your end-game point total.
- Lots of easter eggs to explore and attention to detail. Knowledge of the books heightens your enjoyment, but it is not necessary to love the game.
- Designed by Alexander Schmidt and Jamey Stegmaier (Scythe). Illustrated by Miles Bensky (Rolling Realms), Jacqui Davis (Viticulture), and Justin Wong.
- Hand Management, Set Collection, and Variable Player Powers. Heavily inspired by the game Fantasy Realms. Easy to learn, hard to master!
- Features an Automa to play against in a single player game for a fun solitaire experience. The Automa simulates an opponent for you to compete against, while your game as a player remains the same. On the Automa's turn, flip a card to see what action it takes.
- Ages 14+
- 1-6 Players

The biggest problem with this game, that I found, was that there is a certain point in the game where you have done all you can. You have maximized your hand and there is nothing left for you to do. But you have to keep playing until the end-game is triggered. This makes the second half of the game, for some players, literally just drawing and discarding cards until it's over.
I play Red Rising as a solo game only. I like it fine as a solo game at this price range.
I don't know how it holds up in multi player. I Agree that theres high random luck and not high strategy. Also some people also might like it extra if they're fans of the source books..
BGG has a score of 7.0 for Red Rising which isn't bad
