Star Trek: Lower Decks – Buffer Time: The Card Game

In this push-your-luck, low-stakes card game, 2-6 players must work together to complete their menial assignments while also making time for some well-earned rest and relaxation. Can the lower deckers squeeze enough buffer time into their duty rotation before the bridge crew figures out what's going on? This pick-up-and-play game will give both die-hard Star Trek fans and casual party game fans an easy way to enjoy the humor of Star Trek: Lower Decks, which will be available for £16/$20. Star Trek: Lower Decks – Buffer Time: The Card Game will join Modiphius' award-winning collection of Star Trek gaming titles, as the publisher continues to enjoy a strong licensing relationship with Paramount Consumer Products.

"Isn't Mariner free to give you a quote? No? Fine, I'll do it. It's Star Trek. It's Star Trek: Lower Decks," said Project manager Jim Johnson. "It's a fast-playing card game that'll have you laughing and crying. I'm super excited to be able to expand our Star Trek license into card games, and I hope you check it out and have fun with your group playing this one! Just watch out for those senior officers–they're allergic to buffer time and will find new menial tasks for you and your fellow lower deckers to complete."
