BONUS:
I had tweeted to Peter Olotka, one of the creators of Cosmic Encounter, to thank him for such a fantastic game. He was kind enough to provide his take on how CE stacked up against the new Game of Thones themed version, The Iron Throne:
@Digital_Fiasco well in Cosmic the Bride alien gets half your cards in alimony when she dumps you. In Game of Thrones ..it’s much harsher
