Legendary Encounters: An Alien Deck Building Game

Product Review (submitted on November 25, 2017):

I've played a few deck building games, this is by far my favorite. I love that you can be the alien after you die and try to kill off your teammates. There's a good twist by having an agenda you can be good or evil before dying. You can try to sabotage your team by not helping them when they need it. Then if they start to die off, your winning by them losing. Or you can die on purpose then come back as an alien and try to attack them.
Now you don't have to play that way, you can play a deck building as normal just trying to make it thru to the end of the game all alive and helping each other.
Just double check all cards are in the box when getting them, upper deck has been known for leaving a card out here or there sometimes. You'll have to contact upper deck and let them know which one is missing to get a replacement.
We didn't have a problem and all cards were accounted for.
Even if you haven't seen the movies you can play this game.
Not like the Marvel deck building games, unfortunately I started on this game before playing Marvel deck building. If I had started with Marvel I may like them better. But this game had set the bar of deck building. When I tried Marvel, I didn't like it.
Harry Potter deck building game had also set the bar as a twist to the deck building games as well for me. -another 5 stars on that one.
