I have the original but I will check out the upgrade option. I like the concept of the results deck and the other changes, some interesting design choices. Great overview and playthrough!
I just played this for the first time this weekend. I think the game mechanics are a little too punishing for fighting aliens. There's not much of a benefit for risking a fight with an alien so I felt like my best option whenever i was at risk of fighting an alien (either 2 noise or 1 alien card in the row) was to hide. I feel like the game would be a little more balanced if you were encouraged to try to fight aliens sometimes. For instance, if the row didn't clear when you fight aliens. That would make it more rewarding to defeat an alien instead of just hiding. Also, the tossing tokens system is a bit unfair when you are tossing multiple tokens. You are supposed to toss them all at once which causes them to scatter when they hit the target meaning you're almost guaranteed to have lots of misses. I like the concept a lot but I think it needs to be tightened up a little bit.
Is it just me, or does the medkit look like a pig? Okay, so it's just me that looks like a pig.🐷 There's only one thing worse than having the Reshuffle card on the bottom of the deck, and that's having the Reshuffle card on the bottom and the other Reshuffle card the last but one card in the deck. lol This game looks very silly. May have to back it! lol Thanks for the preview Mike.

The aliens on the cards, in no way resemble the aliens from the Alien movies. 🤣🤣🤣
This is a MINING colony. I think that was a terraforming colony. And LV-426 is a VERY different number than 415. And there's no Nostromo in sight! ;)

When did you get a porco rosso profile pic!? I love that movie! Maybe I’m a pig too 😅 🐷
The sewer card looks like three lego lightsabers.

OMGoodness
How could I have forgotten I changed the profile pic to Porco Rosso! 🤦♂🤦♂
haha Nice spot Mike! lol

IMO it looks hidious.
Really? I love this artist, and the work they’ve done for this whole series. But tastes will of course vary 😅
