Description

In Alien Uprising, you and your crew are stranded on the hostile planet Hive IV, surrounded by the menacing Zothren alien "bug" races. With your ship crash landed and debris scattered everywhere, you must work together to survive. The Zothren are relentless, and their numbers are growing by the minute, so you'll need to use your unique skills and chosen actions to defend yourselves, retrieve equipment, and repair the ship. As you navigate this desperate situation, you'll roll custom dice to determine the actions available each turn, from combat and engineering to scouting and first aid. With the rescue ship on its way, you must hold off the Zothren attacks or repair the ship and lift off before it's too late. With variable player powers and a cooperative gameplay mechanic, Alien Uprising is a thrilling challenge for 3 to 5 players that will keep you on the edge of your seat for 90 minutes of intense, sci-fi action.
