In Star Wars: Outer Rim, you play as a scoundrel just trying to make it in this crazy galaxy, by becoming rich and famous.
Star Wars: Outer Rim is a game where you take the role of a bounty hunter looking to make it big.
You’ll spend your time taking on dangerous jobs while hiring some recognizable characters to join you on your adventures.
Star Wars: Outer Rim Overview
You start with a fairly nondescript ship with very few bells and almost no whistles. Throughout the game you’ll have the opportunity to upgrade your ship in a multitude of ways. Each upgrade can focus your ship better suit the jobs you’re tackling.
Completing your ship goal allows you to flip the ship card to unlock new abilities. This also reveals its super secret name that you’d definitely never guess.
The goal of each player is to gain 10 Fame. This is accomplished by completing bounties, and jobs and through your character’s personal objective. Jobs can be anything from collecting bounties, delivering illegal goods, battling patrols from each of the warring factions. You go up against the Hutts, Crime Syndicates, Imperials, and Rebels.
Or you might just be buying some fancy things with your hard-earned credits. The patrols can be an annoying deterrence, but dealing with them might gain you some powerful allies elsewhere.
Customize Your Ship
Star Wars: Outer Rim allows for a lot of customization. Each player board contains slots for that player’s ship, character card and gear. But is also used to track that player’s reputation, Fame, jobs and bounties.
Star Wars: Outer Rim has a lot going for it and with a pretty popular theme, I could easily see this game becoming a new staple in a lot of gaming collections!
Plus there’s a solo mode!
