Played our 3rd game of Ark Nova, this time it took us “only” 3.5h with 2 players, omg.
Got difficult winning condition cards and starting hand. After the first 2 games had been pretty clear in terms of what to do, I struggled to find my way here. Lost with -7 to 26 or so.
Not sure if I would want to buy it (had it rented from the library), seems too luck based in terms of cards.
Sorry to hear that this is your experience with Ark Nova. I think its very little luck based but strategy heavy and finding ways to get through a lot of cards to find what you need can be crucial. I personally think its the best two player game out there

To be fair I did some stupid mistakes, so not blaming the game here. Finding optimal strategy for various situations is usually something I enjoy
