This video was originally planned to go live over a week ago, but due to illness i left it unpublished. You tube is a very unforgiving place when a creator is too sick to be making stuff. Anyway, a great little co-op game here, very thematic and fun if a little derivative in places. Defintely worth having a go of if you like co-ops or the Alien movie. And i don't think its a particularly expensive game either
Hope you're well and truly on the mend. Blessings from Australia neighbour :)
Cheers, still a bit crook to be honest. Nowhere near what i was this time last week though
@@3MBG Sounds like your at least heading in the right direction. Take it easy hey!
Great overview but a slight correction. Horrified was designed by the design collective Prospero Hall, while I designed ALIEN Fate of the Nostromo. Any similarities are merely coincidental.
Fascinating. Because it feels very much like a modified version of horrified, right down to the 3-5 actions per character and pick up and deliver resolution system. Even the packaging and overall feel of the box seems related. I've played Pandemics that felt less like pandemic than this feels like a mod of horrified. Well, only you know what process you went through to make the game, but to an outsider, the game 100% feels like horrified was the start point of the design.
I love Alien franchise, board games, and your channel, so I loved this video!
Simple, licensed, less intense version of nemesis. Another quality video man. It’s always just the right amount of info 🙏
Horrified was a great game we which played a lot, thankfully the numerous monster's provided the variability. Would like to play this one day, no rush to own it.
Horrified is sooo fun
Last night we played a 3 player vs 3 monsters game and it was such enjoyable game
We limit "one" special action for each heroes turn to make the game a little more thinky
Been hoping you would cover this man, been in my Amazon basket for weeks
I love this game and play it with my kids.
Interesting, thanks for sharing. 👍
Surprised Nemesis wasn't an alternative recommendation!😁
Yeah, fair call.
It's a heavier game, and has very different mechanics
Players argue about special abilities. Page 4 Special abilities: Can use multiple times unless otherwise stated. Ripley with 4 actions can use all her actions to move other crew up to 4 times if she doesn't do anything else. Brett pays no action on crafting items so can keep crafting until he runs out of scrap or space on his card - others only once per turn. This game is tougher with 5 characters. Optimum chance of success with 3.
Thanks for the video.
I'll put in a good word for a non-IP game, that is very much a homage to the original Alien movie - Lifeform.
It's definitely a meatier experience, albeit the core actions / gameplay aren't that complex, but a bit more than this, along with a few somewhat over-fiddly rules that make occasional appearances.
Decent game, a little bit on rails to the follow the movie. Not as bad as the Die Hard game, which I haven't played but i've heard is strictly the same game each time. Looked forward to Alien but only played it a few times after getting it. I think the Jaws game was a bit more unpredictable and diverse, whilst also following the basic structure of the movie.
Damnit Jonesy!!!
When you open the game box, that cat is right there. Its quite startling.
I enjoy this game but definitely looking into Nemesis or Lockdown. Deciding between those has been tough
Id go with the original
@@3MBG As in Nemesis? (Thanks for another great video.)
Yeah, original nemesis
🔼 What he said.
@@dicezart9667 Those I have not tried yet but there are always three or four of us playing. I think Lockdown came with one of them (maybe #3?) in the stretch box.
Sort looks like Burgle Bros, minus the variable map, difficulties, larger player variability, guards; and movie theme. You ever tried this one?
Its on the shelf to be played, keeps getting bumped
@@3MBG I'd not worry about bumping it myself; its at best a good-to-ok game.
What is the greeting you use?
Kia ora koutou. It is Te Reo Maori for "hello to you all". Te Reo Maori is an official language of Aotearoa/New Zealand where i am from, and is the language of the indigenous Maori.
@@3MBG Thanks so much for your reply and for your great content. 🙂
Gotta give credit to a company that mostly makes kid's games/puzzles somehow pulling off a jump scare in a board game.
Ha, good point, lol. I'm not sure many other board games manage a jump scare.
Getting attacked by the alien only reduces the overall morale? Is it just really rude to people?
its spooking them. Think of it less as a direct attack and more the many scenes where they encounter it and flee
She's called Karen and upset that your Manager is unavailable
I did think this lol, however if it was equivalent to the aliens actual ability in the film you'd be fucked the second it entered the room with you, so I guess the moral system is the best compromise they could reach to sustain multiple attacks on the player.
oh dang, didn't know it was like horrified. i have two games sitting on my table right now that i've not played since i bought them, trying to decide which to play. this game and...horrified american monsters!
Apparently, they are not related in any way. Which absolutely stunned me as they feel quite similar.
I'm likely to get rid of this one. Not as fun as Horrified or as good as Nemesis.
