Heroes of Metro City plus expansion Storylines and Sidekicks

Space Cat chose to play this game from our game library.

Professor and I have played the base game a few times, and it is hard.  We were soundly beaten by the villains the first time (which may have been due to a learning curve), but we’ve really struggled to win this game in the past.

Energy cards:

  • Strange Alien Artifact
  • First of Your Kind

Because we received a boost for having a gender in our heroes names, we all made sure we had that.

  • Space Cat – Spooky Girl
  • Chubby Unicorn – Star Girl
  • Professor – Spider-Man

Velociraptor! Cannibalism!

We’d only played this game once before, and Space Cat gained a reputation as an egg stealer as a result.  It had been a while, though, so we did a refresher on the rules.  Since the three cards we drew were all high level predators, we decided to give the deck another shuffle before actually starting.

  • Chubby Unicorn – Sprinkles
  • Professor – Reginald
  • Space Cat – Mortimer
  • Shutter – Brian
  • Clumsy Ninja – Randolph
  • President Gamer – Fleet Captain Morgan

Walk the Plank x2


The Professor and I have had Walk the Plank for some time (we backed it on Kickstarter), but we’ve never had the opportunity to play it.

  • Space Cat – yellow
  • Clumsy Ninja – Blue
  • Chubby Unicorn – green
  • The Professor – Red.
  • Cowboy – Orange

Game play is pretty simple. You select three cards and lay them face down in order in front of you. The idea is to try to anticipate what the other players are going to do and choose your cards based on that. This means that there’s an element of unpredictability to the game.
