This Product is Top Notch!
I'm an RPG Pen & Paper Gamer and I use these cards to support my sci-fi sessions and as these cards are setting free I can use them for my various rpgs and the cards always work well. I draw several cards and let myself be inspired by it. This works very well when placing the cards above each other with only the bottom sticking out and turned around - this way I have my planet with more than 3-4 traits. Combining them interestingly is very fun and exactly where I'm inspired!
For those among you who like to plan ahead you can plan out a whole planetary system, especially if you add the other Galaxy Builder Deck modules together. Laying them out before a game and covering the planets up with black cut outs and revealing them once the characters explore them is quite fun and works very well.
Even alone each card is easy to use with all the traits at front and back, say your group is investigating a swamp, by checking the swamp planet you have good descriptors for various parts of the swamp or let them be an inspiration for fauna/flora that lives there.
The whole set is very sturdy and thin, hence you can easily have several packs in your hand and draw cards for inspiration, random placement or just taking those cards you planned for. A great advantage is that all packs have interesting different elements but all similar design so that they all have a good feel of belonging together - not like having different products from different producers with different setting.
Next to the great usefulness I must also point out very clearly that Journey Mountain Studios has the best customer support I have ever encountered - They do care and go the extra mile!
