Nemesis Board Game - Sci-Fi Horror Adventure! Detailed Miniatures, Cooperative & Strategy Gameplay, Space Survival Challenge, Ages 14+, 1-5 Players, 1-2 Hour Playtime

I can’t praise this game enough! Nemesis is a STAPLE of our weekly game nights. It has a TON of pieces, each piece feels like good quality, and the gameplay is crazy fun…but be warned: friendships are tested as you never know if your friend is out to get you. The premise of the game is easy, and learning the game isn’t too difficult. Move: roll noise dice. Play cards. Fight aliens if they arrive (or run away from them). Complete onjectives. Go to Earth. What we love the most about the game is that it’s never the same every time you play it since the rooms are randomized. It keeps the game fresh every time you play it. Heads up: it’s a BIG game by size and requires a large play area. Also, get the expansions! They add to the core of the game.

The media could not be loaded. There is not a single downside to this game (unless your typical game night excedes five players). The main game is "semi-cooperative”. You must work together to survive. You could get knocked out of the game on the second turn, permanently. But you also have personal objectives that might tempt you into deceit, sabotage, and murder. There are also Fully Cooperative and Revive Modes that eliminate paranoia and promote deeper compassion and communication. There's even a single-player mode! Optionally, the first player to die can play as the Intruders, making an already overwhelming enemy more threatening. Worth the pricetag, every dollar your spend is packed into the game. This is a well-designed and organized game box: a place for everything and everything in its place. High-quality and gorgeously detailed plastic figures, a double-sided game board (standard and harder layout), detailed instructions, handy reference cards, great artwork and more. A short story you can read aloud sets the drama while actually teaching the game's flow. My group played last weekend, and we couldn't help role-playing our characters. NOT our usual game night!! Intense with moments of screaming hilarity. If you like games like Catan, Twilight Imperium, Gloomhaven, etc. OR if you are a fan of the Alien movie franchise, consider this a MUST BUY.

Absolutely a incredible boardgame. Clever design, very challenging (we lost our first game) but what a thrill and terrific game play along the way. Compelling and thematic. Could easily become a favorite for our group.

Nemesis is a fantastic game. Very well thought out and the box holds everything. Very well organized. The gameplay is so damn fun. Semi cooperative but your partner can turn on you at a moment's notice. Mini figures are very detailed. Fast shipping. I highly recommend this product and the vendor. Well done.

Gameplay:this is a semi-coop game that drips with atmosphere and theme. If you like the classic feelings of the film Alien you will like the theme this game is going for. As a us vs the AI board game, the difficulty can be unfair as you can be punished even for making good moves. However, this difficulty does fit into the theme of the game and it has resulted in some of the more memerable moments playing with friends.Thankfully the difficulty is not from understanding the rules. If you have one person confortable with the rules, the game is easy to share with is players at all gamer levels. Everyone I have introduced the game to has loved the atmosphere and gameplay decisions it presents.The Box:Even though it is a great game that I have only had fun playing it may not be worth it's upfront costs. Most of the value for me came from the miniatures, the aliens specifically. I enjoy painting miniatures and I had several days of fun simply painting the miniatures. There are a wide variety of alien sculpts and their detail is of high value. The human character minis, though great, pale in comparison to the alien sculpts. With in this mind a lot of my value has been from painting the miniatures.The Box itself is well designed and has slots for all of it's components that makes putting it away and taking it out easy. This is great because there are a lot of components and a well organized box makes the process of setting up a lot easier.In sum:ProsA great semi co-op experience, with amazing miniatures and organized box for it's components.Con:Is it's Cost. If you do not plan to paint these minis, don't like the theme, don't regularly play board games, or you have a lot of great games competing for your attention it may not be worth your while.Personal opinion:I am very happy to own this product and it is a lovely addition to my board game collection.
