I think so! As the designer of this game, I enjoy the challenge of strategic games and I hate when games are predictable, boring and purely luck-based.
But I also have lots of family and friends that don’t game as much as I do, and I wanted something EVERYONE could enjoy. That’s why I made Outrun the Bear.
It’s approachable, because you manage a hand of cards and each card tells you what to do. But fans of strategy will enjoy the ability to find and deploy powerful card combinations and terrain effects to gain advantages.
And as for the bear, it’s not luck based– its movements are calculated from the actions of the players at the table!
