The ALIEN tabletop roleplaying game is a beautifully illustrated full-color hardcover book of 392 pages, both presenting the world of ALIEN in the year 2183 and a fast and effective ruleset designed specifically to enhance the ALIEN experience.

The game supports two distinct game modes: Cinematic play is based on pre-made scenarios that emulate the dramatic arc of an ALIEN film. Designed to be played in a single session, this game mode emphasizes high stakes and fast and brutal play. You are not all expected to survive. The core rulebook contains one introductory Cinematic scenario, Hope’s Last Day.

Campaign play is designed for longer continuous play with the same cast of player characters over many game sessions, letting you explore the ALIEN universe freely, sandbox style. The core rulebook contains random tables and other powerful tools to quickly create star systems, colonies, missions, encounters, and NPCs for your campaign.

The rules of the game are based on the acclaimed Year Zero Engine, used in award-winning games such as Tales from the Loop and Mutant: Year Zero, but adapted and further developed to fully support and enhance the core themes of ALIEN: horror and action in the cold darkness of space.

This is the official ALIEN tabletop roleplaying game—a universe of body horror and corporate brinkmanship, where synthetic people play god while space truckers and marines serve host to newborn ghoulish creatures. It’s a harsh and unforgiving universe and you are nothing if not expendable. Stay alive if you can.

SQUARES AND HEXES: The board is 27'' on 23''. It contains hexes on one side and squares on the other side. Squares are 1'', hexes are 1'' side to side. 26 x 22 squares. 29 rows of hexes alternating 21 and 22 hexes per row.

DRY ERASABLE: We recommend Staedtler Lumocolor correctable pens for long-lasting outlines and Expo dry erase markers for short term drawings. The dry erase markers can easily be erased with fingers or pieces of cloth, erasing the correctables requires the use of the erasing tip. The use of a damp cloth or micro cloth (a little rubbing alcohol can help too) is required for most markings after a couple of days, this also helps against smudging. No pens or markers are included.

EASY TRANSPORT AND STORAGE: The board is foldable and measures 13.5''x11.5''x0.4'' fully folded. The box measures 13.75''x11.75''x 1.75'' and can easily fit in a backpack. This leaves some empty space in the provided box that can be filled with dice, miniatures, map tiles, rules, sheets and markers. The drawings can be left on the board when folding. This is convenient for multiple gaming sessions requiring the same terrain. The dry erasable lines can be erased and redrawn for a new adventure.

EYE FOR DESIGN: The box is designed to be placed next to other tabletop game boxes, it is predominantly red and black with a matte finish. The map's borders follow a hellfire theme.

100% SATISFACTION GUARANTEE: We aim for 100% customer satisfaction. If there are any problems with the product please let us know. We provide easy refund possibilities and timely shipping.
