Looney LabsFluxx Dice Game

Positives1. Flexible number of players.2. Games are a mixture of skill and chance which is fun.3. If you like Dr Who the references are amusing.4. As each individual game doesn't last ages it is a lot better for playing on days such as Christmas/ New Year. People can take part in a game, go do something else then join back in for the next one. It created a nice fluidity of taking part and being able to cook/ meet new guests etc.5. It's a little box of cards so very portable.Negatives1. It is quite a steep learning curve. I already had Fluxx 4.0 so knew how the rules/goals changed as played. The younger people (aged 14-35) picked it up faster but those over 50 found it a bit of a struggle. We stayed with it and people enjoyed it though it took a while for some folk. I would recommend teaching people to play when they are not tired!2. The length of games varies quite a bit. Not a problem for me but harder to judge times.3. Once you have played one fluxx, you have to a large extent played them all. There are slight variations but I wouldn't recommend running out to buy other versions if you already have one.4. You have to be able to accept that people make mistakes! I have played with people who are really strict to the rules. That isn't going to work for fluxx as the rules keep changing and keeping track of everything is a big challenge, especially for new players. The rule sticklers I have introduced this to argued before they started but dropped that after one game. This game is more about taking part than winning. If you stop each game whenever someone makes a mistake you will rarely get to the end.Overall, I really like Fluxx. This version was bought as a gift and enjoyed.

I never had any interest in Fluxx until I found out there was a Doctor Who edition. This is a light, fun game with the theme integrated well enough. I play it solo, because I play everything solo, and have a blast every time but I'm sure it's much more fun with 2+ players, probably like any other Fluxx edition.

As someone new to playing card games I thought I'd give this a try as it seemed fairly straightforward and fun. It doesn't disappoint. Games can last anything from 10 - 15 minutes to half an hour or more depending on what rule changes you decide to play. Although, I will admit there are some cards that seem to have fairly ambiguous wording that left us to make decisions on how they should be played ourselves, but it didn't take away from the fun. While I can see how this would be far more entertaining with a few more players, it works great with just the two of us and I can see it being the kind of thing that would pop into a travel bag (for when we can do things like that again) to play on the go. However, it does benefit from a decent amount of table space.

You really get two games when you buy this, normal FLUX and then the enhance Zombie FLUX which add new rules and new mayhem to the already chaotic and fun FluXX.The basic game is really easy to pick up and fun to play. It has some strategy but also feels free flowing and a little random if you do not have a plan. The great thing about Fluxx is that anyone can change the game at any moment and that changes the pace, the stakes and the amount of tension. Normal games of Fluxx last for about 30 minutes on average. I've only played with a maximum of four other people and we usually play three rounds before we move onto a more serious game.Zombie Fluxx initially feels a few factors more complicated than normal Fluxx and it totally changes the strategy so it may feel a bit daunting for new players. However once you're in the swing of things it is just as fun and sometimes more fun than the vanilla version. Games last a bit longer on average and expect the first game played to take much longer due to the learning curve.Both versions are great party games or family time wasters. I play with a group of adults (23-32) and we all love it.If you buy and enjoy this game then i would recommend Evil Baby Nursery too, another great card game.

I have played both Pirate Fluxx and Monty Python Fluxx before, and decided to get this version for my brother, an aficionado of sci-fi, for Christmas. We opened it on the day, it was one of the few games we played that day around family responsibilities (Star Trek Catan, Pandemic, Coup and 7 Wonders got pushed to the side).This is without a doubt my favourite version. The games seem to have a much faster pace, and there is a lot of variety in the Keepers and Creepers. For those who haven't played Fluxx before, you play cards in turn depending on the rules played previously. At the beginning, you draw one card from the deck and play one card from your hand. But later, someone might play a 'Play All' card, which means everyone has to play everything in their hand every turn. The victory conditions fluctuate as much as the rules do, it becomes a very fun, very easy to learn game, that can take anywhere from 15 minutes to over an hour.I would strongly recommend this to any newcomers to Fluxx.

Todo bien

What a fun game! Fluxx is one of the very few games I will play and Firefly Fluxx is the best one yet! If you love Firefly, you will love this game.

Comparado con el Fluxx normal, esta versión es un poco más estratégica y entretenido porque agrega varios elementos nuevos. Las cartas de sorpresa sirven para evitar que un jugador con más suerte esté a punto de ganar, los creepers evitan que un jugador pueda ganar y varios keepers tienen habilidades interesantes.Esta es la versión que más recomiendo de Fluxx. Además, si te gusta la temática de ciencia ficción, este juego tiene referencias a varias películas y series del género.Si vas a jugar con niños recomiendo más la versión de Fairy Tale Fluxx.

My friend introduced me to Fluxx over Thanksgiving break, and I immediately knew I need to buy myself a deck. I decided on the Fairytale Fluxx because it is so cute and the style and artistry is awesome! There are no creepers, so it is an easier version of the game. I really enjoy it and it is fun to play- looking to buy different versions in the future!

Para los que no conocen el juego de cartas Fluxx:En general este es un juego de cartas entretenido como para pasar el rato. Si en tu grupo de juegos les gustan los juegos de cartas clásicos de una baraja inglesa o española, u otros más modernos como Love Letter y El Gran Dalmuti entonces Fluxx es una buena opción.Es este juego, en tu turno, lo que haces es tomar una nueva carta del mazo y luego jugar una carta de tu mano. Lo interesante es que puedes jugar cartas que cambian las reglas. Algunos ejemplo de estas cartas es hacer que se puedan tomar más cartas por turno, jugar más cartas por turno, poner un límite en las cartas que uno puede tener, cambiar la pareja de cartas necesarias para ganar, entonces otras cosas.Las otras cartas son las de guardián (keeper en inglés), que son personajes que debes ir consiguiendo para ganar, y después están las cartas de meta, las cuales te indican que pareja de guardianes necesitas para ganar la ronda.Por lo anterior este juego es entretenido porque puedes ir cambiando las reglas para estorbarle a tus oponentes y hacer que no ganen, parecido como en el juego de cartas UNO.Para los que ya conocen Fluxx y, por ende, los juegos de mesa modernos:La única diferencia que le vi a esta versión fueron los guardianes y las ilustraciones usadas en esta versión. Las ilustraciones son bonitas, como las que aparecen en los libros de cuentos para niños, lo que lo hace la versión ideal para jugar con la familia cuando se tienen niños en ella. Si te gusta Fluxx y buscas otra versión que agregue algo novedoso pues la verdad en esta versión no lo encontrarásEste juego más que nada es como para echar relajo, ya que es más o menos dependiente de la suerte y es de ir estorbando a los demás para que no ganen, así que si eres más de juegos de estrategia o de los que no les gustan los juegos donde "atacas" a los demás jugadores pues puede Fluxx no te agrade mucho, aunque a mi parecer la parte de "atacar" a los demás jugadores no se siente nada agresiva como en otros juegos.Este juego es más bien como un filler para cuando estás esperando a que lleguen los demás de tu grupo de juego o como entrada antes de jugar un juego más pesado.
