      I feel the same, I always only have one other person to play with, so we usually play 3 characters each, it's not as fun just playing two people, but it is fun playing each character differently and trying to sabotage the missions. The directions really don't specify how to tie other characters up, or it doesn't even give you reasons to tie other characters up, the game rules suggest you can torch other players, but they're really no reasons why you would want to torch other players, it's more fun for me and my family too try to get through the three sections in escape and then try to come up with who to let escape, and then reveal who the alien is.

    The part that gave us trouble was on a failed mission you can send someone to put out the fire. After the fire is put out the room is still destroyed? Is that right? Then you take that card and marked it on the destroyed room section? 4 of those and it’s game over.

    • @Dylan-vs6sf
      @Dylan-vs6sf 6 місяців тому

      No.
      Rooms are only destroyed if they are still on fire at the end of the turn.
      If someone is individually sent to a room, or the team went to a room, that had smoke or fire and used a fire extinguisher the smoke/fire is gone and thus can't get better. 4 rooms destroyed does lose the game however.

      From what I can dig up its official release date will be Nov 10th. Although its appears to be a US only so anyone out side the USA will need to pay expensive shipping fees just get a copy.... US amazon site says $79 plus shipping as far as cost goes. So for me living in the UK I will be looking at $100+ for it.
