Узнайте, где все началось и постарайтесь пережить кошмарные события!
Данное дополнение является предысторией основной игры и разворачивается на новой локации, норвежской станции, которую атакует загадочный пришелец, способный принимать облик любого живого существа. Игрокам в роли простых полярников предстоит вычислить врага и успешно спастись, но сделать это будет не так уж просто! Новые персонажи стараются вычислить пришельца в своих рядах с помощью новых возможностей проверки зубных пломб, а также у игроков появится возможность спастись в одиночку, эгоистично бросив своих товарищей. Пришелец пытается захватить тела других участников, а также старается добрать до своего космического корабля. Исход страшной истории будет различаться, и все здесь зависит от действий игроков.
Получится ли у вас остаться человеком и найти врага в своих рядах? Времени все меньше, а опасность все ближе!
*Внимание! Это не самостоятельная игра. Вам понадобится "Нечто(2022)"
This expansion for The Thing - The Boardgame allows you to experience the events that happened at Thule Station, the Norwegian station where it all began! As for the 1982 version, the expansion lets you relive the tensest moments from the story, transporting you into the cinematic film!
The core element of the game is based on the emulation properties of the Thing, which will hide its identity under a blanket of fake humanity, but with substantial differences in the way they interact with the game and with your feelings.
Here are the key points of the expansion:
A new board, new characters, and new materials.
A new end game condition represented by the escape of the dog that will arrive at Outpost 31. IF this happens, you can play your next game of the 1982 version with a pack leader dog (a dog that behaves differently throughout the game).
A new element in the game: teeth! The Thule Station crew discovers that the Alien cannot assimilate and duplicate metal parts, so dental fillings become a way to find out if a person is definitely human, but not if they are alien. The test with the wire and the flamethrower disappears and flashlights are added with which it will be possible to carry out a test and look at the teeth of the other characters, checking for the presence or lack of fillings.
A new location is available for the Thing: The UFO! It represents the last hope of escape for the Thing, as in the movie. The final confrontation with any remaining humans will take place here. Of course, this is only an option, and just like the dog escape mentioned above, it doesn't necessarily happen! Everything will depend on your behavior, as you can win or lose in many ways!
In the 2011 film, as soon as they found out what's going on, people's behavior becomes more selfish, trying by all means to save their own lives. We therefore decided to try to include the possibility of a solitary escape, an element that will bring the level of distrust to the maximum! This also brings new mechanics, such as the ability to voluntarily sabotage vehicles even if you are human.
The expansion will contain: a new board, new characters, new cards and new tokens.
